Scouting Report

Assets
  • Owns a heavy shot from the point, great size and mobility. Can log a ton of ice time, and can also play a shutdown role if required. Is a power-play asset.
Flaws
  • Should use his size more to keep forwards honest, since he's not physical enough for a 6-3 defenseman. Is guilty of occasional brain cramps.
Career Potential
  • Mobile top four defenseman.
