A big body defender who leans 'Defensive D' but does provide some offense occasionally
In (22/23) he averaged 16:17 TOI. All of his ice time comes at ES and the PK. Average plus skater. Long reach - bodies up but not punishing - effective taking away time and space - has the ability to play both sides (LD and RD) and match-up versus opponents top six forwards
In the past he has been described as 'efficient' - remains accurate
No frills - steady - recognizes his limitations - should help elevate the Canucks PK
143 hits / 96 shot blocks last season in Seattle - likely to see second pairing minutes in Van
