Scouting Report
Had size and was incredibly strong. Possessed a heavy, thunderous shot from the point and could be a solid point producer. Could also log plenty of minutes, if need be. Struggled against speedy wingers and occasionally made critical mistakes in the defensive zone. Lacked consistency in all facets of the game. Declined quickly.
Long Range Potential: Big, strong defenseman with all-round ability.
