Scouting Report
A productive offensive defenseman at lower levels, he has not shown that ability much in the NHL. Is a good skater who has been tasked with playing a defense-first game since entering the big league, including killing penalties. His mobility and focus on defense make him a good partner for an offensive D-man who likes to jump into the play.
Long Range Potential: Mobile defensive defenseman.
