High character effective junior defender who has mobility and sticks to a low risk effective defensive game at this point. A big-bodied kid who has no issue with contact and seems not to have a panic point. His game is consistently effective because he plays within his limits, takes care of his assignments between the circles and the crease and executes plays in transition with decent outlets. Unearths pucks in his end with both his stick and his physicality. Isn’t a high end skater with sharp edging; just a prospects who makes few mistakes and doesn’t hurt his team out there. Has a decent shot,=but and his feet needs to develop more. A long term developmental player who could turn out.
