Scouting Report
At lower levels, he is an offensive defenseman with great mobility and excellent hockey sense. Also boasts a very high compete level that helps him succeed. Can quarterback the power play and has good instincts and an active stick. Is somewhat undersized for the blueline position at the National Hockey League level, so he could stand to get bigger and stronger to maximize output at the highest level. There are concerns about his overall defensive game, too.
Long Range Potential: Depth defenseman.
