Scouting Report
Moves the puck incredibly well and has excellent mobility. Uses an active stick to defend his position in the defensive zone with aplomb. Has a great head for the game. His lack of size could become a major issue at the National Hockey League level, so he needs to add bulk and become physically stronger. Needs to shoot the puck more.
Long Range Potential: Talented, mobile puck-moving defenseman with upside.
