Scouting Report
Was quite mobile (and a good skater, overall) and also a capable puck-moving defenseman. Had offensive ability (mostly at lower levels) and a projectable frame. Lacked strength when dealing with bigger forwards in front of his own net or in the corners and also lacked some confidence on offense when he toiled at the NHL level.
Long Range Potential: Mobile depth defenseman.
