Scouting Report
The young, mobile defenseman can move the puck effectively and play major minutes, as well as block shots and kill penalties. Small for a defenseman (5'11"), he still has to prove he can win one-on-one battles against opposing forwards on a consistent basis. He was an offensive force in junior hockey but has yet to show that kind of prowess in the NHL.
Long Range Potential: Mobile, two-way defenseman.
