Scouting Report
Displays some all-around ability. Owns a quality shot from the point, so he can be an asset on the power play at lower levels. Is also rather reliable, and he does not make very many mistakes on the ice. Is willing to play a physical game. Does not own ideal size for a National Hockey League defenseman, so he must become a lot stronger in order to best defend against big forwards in the pro ranks. Will he be able to produce the offense he notched as a junior in the pro game?
Long Range Potential: Depth defenseman.
