Scouting Report
Is still capable of playing major minutes. Skates well. His offensive capabilities are limited but he can handle a shutdown role, despite not being much of a physical presence in his own zone. Better health would be a big help because he has had a lot of trouble playing a full season at the National Hockey League level.
Long Range Potential: Solid, mobile defenseman (when healthy).
