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
