Scouting Report
Had good hockey sense and on-ice awareness. Was defensively responsible and an excellent face-off man. Was also gritty and a good example for younger players. Was undersized and a bit fragile, so injuries were a big factor here. Did not produce numbers in the NHL that matched those produced at lower levels.
Long Range Potential: Versatile checking center.
