Scouting Report

Assets
  • Has a bomb from the point and an imposing frame. Is a major threat on the power play, as well as a versatile blue-liner.
Flaws
  • Doesn't use his huge 6-5 frame enough. Makes too many mistakes in his own zone. Injuries have hurt his development. Lacks coordination.
Career Potential
  • Big, inconsistent defenseman with a great point shot.
  • Awards2003AHL - Yanick Dupre Memorial Award (AHL Man of the Year)
