Scouting Report
The son of former Detroit Tigers pitcher Dan Petry is a smooth skater who can drive play toward the opposition's zone by carrying the puck or making a good breakout pass. He is good at picking his spots when it comes to joining the play, and his big shot is a weapon on the power play. Is not the most physical defenseman despite his size (6’3”), but he can handle big minutes.
Long Range Potential: Solid veteran defenseman.
