Scouting Report
Had the size teams lust after at the NHL level. Was the consummate team player who also dropped the gloves when needed to defend his mates. Could play a shutdown role, if required. Was extremely limited in the offensive zone and made mistakes with the puck in his own end. His mobility and coordination was never his strength at the NHL level. Lacked consistency.
Long Range Potential: Big, solid depth defenseman.
