Scouting Report

Assets
  • Owns the size NHL teams crave along the blue-line. Has a projectable frame and all-around upside. Can log big minutes because he's rather low-maintenance.
Flaws
  • Is extremely raw in all aspects of the game, and needs better coordination in order to maximize potential. Must also use his size more to his advantage.
Career Potential
  • All-around defenseman.
