AVG TOI ranged from 15:00 - 19:00 in 21/22.A 2-way 'D' who can skates pucks / join rush
A veteran depth defender. He will bump opponents but he's not a punishing player. Generally makes responsible decisions with the puck. On occasion, especially under duress in his zone, he tends to chip/move pucks into areas that result in scoring chances against. Not the type of 'D' that will play heavy match up minutes vs top 6 forwards but he is capable defending middle 6. Some secondary offense at ES is a bonus.
