SCOUTING REPORT
Tall, skinny defender with good tools and skills. Has a nice smooth stride, four direction skating ability, but little or no anchor which causes him to be knocked on his can frequently. In scrums, he has trouble staying balanced. Needs to get in the weight room and build up that underdeveloped frame. He seems to blaze a path ahead of himself without using his eyes to see the oncoming opposition who then disrupt him in his task. Needs to use his linemates and see the ice better. Long term developmental prospect who does have enough offensive positives to get selected. Then the work will come.
