Scouting Report
Has a projectable frame and should fill out and get stronger as he approaches his NHL prime. He skates well and has the build and game to be an effective shutdown defenseman, which figures to be his role at the NHL level because he does not produce much offense. Could be a good fit with an offensive partner.
Long Range Potential: Rangy shutdown defenseman.
