Scouting Report
Was clearly an offense-first type of defenseman. He was excellent with the puck on his stick and often behaved like a fourth forward thanks to his superb mobility and offensive instincts. Was also quite handy on the power play and could serve as a quarterback at the highest level. It was his defensive skills and lack of consistency that kept him from being among the top flight of NHL defensemen during his career.
Long Range Potential: Solid offensive defenseman.
