Scouting Report
Owns pretty good size for the National Hockey League game, plus the physicality to match. Also produces decent offensive numbers at lower levels. Needs to avoid taking too many penalties at the highest level. Is somewhat limited in terms of natural ability, so his minutes have to be reduced.
Long Range Potential: Depth defenseman.
