Scouting Report
Skates well and possesses a lot of offensive acumen from the back end, especially at lower levels. Is a good puck-moving blueliner who is good in transition. At only 5-10, 188 pounds, he is undersized for the defense position at the National Hockey League level. Also, he's not great without the puck (defensively).
Long Range Potential: Depth defenseman.
