Transitional / 2-way 'D' ... Leans transitional
Good size. Moves well. Brings skill and vision. More of a distributor than a shooter.
Agile. Has ability to spin off pressure and skate pucks up ice. On the offensive blue line he 'walks' the blue line to open up options to make plays.
A 'bumper' in the defensive zone. He isn't a punishing player.
Top 4 NHL 'D' on projection. Bulk of his minutes will be skated at ES and PP. Not likely a PK #1
