Scouting Report

Assets
  • An excellent physical package, he owns an imposing frame, smooth fundamentals and all-around acumen. Can play on the power play, where he displays poise, composure and unleashes a big, heavy shot. Excels in one-on-one situations.
Flaws
  • He's still a little inconsistent in his zone, prone to gaffes every now and then. His physical game has improved greatly, he just needs to keep it consistent. Offensively, he's not as silky-smooth as a natural power-play quarterback.
Career Potential
  • All-round big-minute defenseman with upside.
  • Awards2011Named to play in the NHL All-Star Game2007Played in the NHL YoungStars Game
