Scouting Report

Has improved his five-on-five play over time, making his offensive contributions even more valuable. He remains an asset on special teams but now sees less time with the extra man and contributes more at even strength. Remains capable of playing effectively while logging 20-plus minutes per night. Can be used on either side of the ice, which adds value.

Long Range Potential: All-around, minute-munching defenseman.
