Scouting Report
Owned offensive acumen and the mobility to succeed in a wide-open system. Improved his defensive-zone coverage at the minor-pro level over time. Had trouble avoiding injuries throughout his career. Did not make good enough use of his physical gifts, which limited his appearances in the NHL.
Long Range Potential: Depth defenseman.
