Scouting Report
Has good size for an NHL defenseman but does not play an especially physical style, so he can be pushed off the puck at times. Consistency can be an issue for him, and he is probably best playing sheltered minutes due to a lack of optimum skating speed. Coaches regard the Finnish Stanley Cup champion as a good character player.
Long Range Potential: Solid veteran defenseman.
