Scouting Report

Assets
  • Has size, skating ability, a blast from the blueline and intelligence. Is capable of shutting down the very best forwards in the NHL. Also provides leadership and is a great open-ice hitter.
Flaws
  • Is an inconsistent offensive performer. Rarely plays at 100 per-cent health, due to his warrior mentality, which can at times hinder his performance.
Career Potential
  • Shutdown defenseman.
