Note: Reports prior to Sept 2023 were originally graded out of ten, and also included additional categories that have been merged into the current categories.
This likely results in the overall ratings prior to 2023 being decreased in comparison to reports since Sept 2023.For an `Apples to Apples` comparison between players, we recommend only comparing reports before, or after, Sept 2023.
Results will average out accordingly as more data is accumulated.

Position scouted: Right Defense
Age when scouted: 18
Projection: Third Pair
Trending: Prospect
At his first NHL training camp to start the 23/24 season he showed glimpses of what he cam provide - but also the amount of work that lies ahead
Good size - competes - always involved
Easy to identity he is a low-risk defender who thinks about defending his zone more than going on offense - Leans 3PD with potential to move up in time - ES and PK / match up defender
When time and space allows his outlets are crisp - there are times he waits a fraction too long to move a puck and it gets him in trouble via turnovers or his outlet option breaking down

Position scouted: Right Defense

Projection: Third Pair
Trending: Up
Good size defender who leans 2-way / Defensive 'D' - Good skater - not elite
Not shy physically - Fronts the puck on the penalty kill - blocks shots
He reads the play appropriately in the defensive zone - but his reaction to what is developing has room to improve
Average plus puck skill. Takes what is given. Not a player who will take a ton of risk offensively. Leans bottom pairing NHL defender.
Compliments a more active 'D' partner
