Scouting Report

Assets
  • Plays with tremendous poise. Has a mean streak and is not shy about hitting the opposition. Is one of the best shot-blocking defensemen in NHL history.
Flaws
  • Won't scare anybody with his offensive ability, since he lacks confidence with the puck. Needs to pick his spots better when lining up opponents.
Career Potential
  • Top four defenseman.
