Scouting Report

Strengths:

Has the ability to rack up points on the power play because of a huge point shot. Makes a crisp first pass out of the defensive zone and joins the rush with aplomb. Can also play wing.

Weaknesses:

At 5-9, 198 pounds, he'll always have trouble handling big NHL forwards. As a result, it's a struggle for him to receive regular ice time as a defenseman. Turns the puck over a lot.

Projection:

Power-play specialist
