Scouting Report
Has a big frame and should eventually play at well over 200 pounds at the professional level. Plays a very cerebral game and is quite adept at moving the puck swiftly up ice. Skates well and is also a solid passer. Seems to play with ice water in his veins, as he rarely gets rattled when the pressure is on in the defensive zone. Will need to fill out in order to maximize output at the highest level. Offer both offensive and shutdown potential.
Long Range Potential: Big, all-around defenseman with upside.
