There is a lot to like here, as he has the projectable size for the National Hockey League (plus the mobility and offensive skills to match). He outgrew the junior leagues in Finland a lot earlier than most. Still needs to prove he can thrive while playing his all-around game against stiffer competition, though his physical traits practically ensure him a role at the highest level (as long as he continues to develop normally).

Long Range Potential: Big, talented all-around defenseman with good upside.
