Scouting Report
Has slowly climbed the ladder from the USHL to the NCAA ranks to the AHL and now the NHL, developing his game along the way. He is at his best when he keeps his game simple, making a quick first pass or skating the puck out of trouble. Is not much of a threat to put up big offensive numbers but has good mobility, which helps him compensate for his lack of size.
Long Range Potential: Depth defenseman.
