Scouting Report
The late-blooming defenseman is big, aggressive, a gifted athlete and good skater. Has never been much of a point producer and probably needs to contribute more to earn more ice time at the NHL level. May fit best on a pairing with an offensive partner where he assumes the stay-at-home role.
Long Range Potential: Decent defensive defenseman.
