'2-way / Transitional D' who's averaging just shy of 22:00 TOI to start the season.
Deployed in all situations. When time and space is available he isn't shy about leading the rush. Generally sound distributor / outlets / and on the PP.
Doesn't hesitate to pinch down in the offensive zone to extend plays and direct pucks on goal
Good skater. A little long out of the blocks, but once up to speed his pace is sound.
Pushes back physically. Blocks shots.
There are times he tries to make something out of nothing, resulting in turnovers in key areas of the ice. Sometimes less would equal more.
No easy minutes. Matches up against top six forwards.

Projection: First Pair

Has proven he can log big minutes in both regular season and playoffs. His AVG TOI has ranged from 20:00 - 25:00 depending on game scenarios. His 8g-36a-44pts is even more impressive considering he only scored 1g-2a on the PP. A competitive defender who isn't shy about getting involved physically. Never backs down from a challenge. Over his first 5 full years in the NHL he's an impressive (+77) GF/GA. Ability to play his off-side is a bonus. At times he could keep things more simple with outlets. A high end #3 / Capable #2.

Has matured into a reliable top pairing option who can play his off-side. Averaged a career high 23:35 TOI in 2021/2022. Can be trusted in key defensive zone starts / match-ups and on the PK. Has sneaky bite. Battles. Not shy. Will lean on opponents. Aggressive compete. Sees the ice. Makes sound decisions and outlets. If he does get into trouble its usually due to the fact he looked off his first option and exposed the puck in the middle of the ice. Overall there are no real holes in his game at this stage of his career. More than secondary scorer.
