Ozhiganov is your classic defensive defenceman. Don't expect much offense from him nor any flashy plays or highlight moves. In a perfect world he'd be the kind of guy who could play with Rielly who is more offensively minded as Ozhiganov could act as the stay back guy while Rielly gets involved. Honestly I'd like to see him play with Rielly or Gardiner as both those guys like to join the rush, meaning Ozhiganov would be a nice piece to stay back and defend. He's got good size but may need some time to adjust to the North American rinks, I definitely think he's an upgrade over some of our other RHD options but I wouldn't expect him opening night, maybe a mid season call up kind of like Dermott this year.
