Scouting Report
Has improved his defensive play to the point that he can be relied upon as more than just a puck-moving defenseman. He can rush and shoot the puck well, but he now gets back faster to pucks in his own zone and does not try to do too much. Has good size but still has to learn how to use it more effectively in order to make the most of his skills.
Long Range Potential: Solid two-way defenseman.
