Scouting Report

Assets
  • Skates incredibly well and can be dangerous in the offensive zone. Puts pressure on opposing defenses as a constant roving defenseman. Moves the puck well and can line up on either side of the ice.
Flaws
  • Must use his size more to his advantage. Needs to continue to maximize his ability to recuperate when he decides to take off on a rush, since he can be prone to being taken out of position on occasion.
Career Potential
  • Mobile puck-moving defenseman.
