Scouting Report

Assets
  • Has great mobility and intelligence from behind the blue-line. Can put up points at lower levels and be used on the power play if need be.
Flaws
  • Is a little undersized for the NHL level, and he also lacks a consistent physical dimension to his game. Doesn't use his offensive gifts enough at the highest level.
Career Potential
  • Mobile depth defenseman.
