Scouting Report
Was a gritty, defensively-responsible rearguard. Scrappy and unselfish, he was a presence in front of his own net. Was also a natural leader in the minor leagues. Not offensively gifted, he also didn't shoot the puck enough. Spent many years in the minors due to limited talent for the National Hockey League game.
Long Range Potential: Journeyman depth defenseman.
