Scouting Report

Assets
  • Is as mobile as they come from the back end. Runs a power play smoothly and with creativity. Puts up impressive point totals and is solid in the defensive zone. Can act as a fourth forward when on the ice.
Flaws
  • Is not big or strong, so he struggles to handle NHL power forwards in front of the net. Tries to do too much with the puck from time to time.
Career Potential
  • Elite offensive defenseman.
