Scouting Report
Could be a major offensive threat from behind the blueline. Had a wealth of top-level experience and plenty of polish working the power play. Was a clever passer who packed a heavy shot from the point. Liked to join the rush. Lacked the size and strength needed to excel when given heavy minutes in the NHL. Was prone to making bad decisions in the defensive zone under pressure. Did not always choose the best time to pinch in from the point.
Long Range Potential: Solid offensive defenseman.
