Scouting Report

Assets
  • Confidently moves the puck well up ice, has a good shot, very good skating ability and the upside to produce consistent point totals. A courageous little bugger for a player his size, he relies on excellent positioning in the defensive zone to earn his coach's trust.
Flaws
  • Is well below-average by National Hockey League standards in terms of his size (5-8, 175 pounds), which hinders his overall upside.
Career Potential
  • Diminutive puck-moving defenseman with offensive upside.
