Kemp agreed to terms on a two-year, two-way contract with Pittsburgh on Wednesday, per PuckPedia.
Scouting Report
Has excellent size for a modern-day National Hockey League defenseman. Boasts a big shot from the point and defensive chops. Can also play a physical game, but could stand to become more consistent in that area.
Long Range Potential: Big, steady defenseman.
