Birthday: Nov. 22, 2002
Height: 6' 5 | 198 cm
Weight: 214 lbs | 97 kg
Drafted: 1 overall, 2021 round 1 (
BUF)
Contract: $5,550,000 over 3 years (Cap hit: $916,667)
A complete player. Future top pairing 'D' who could end up being a 'Franchise Player'.
Can be used in all situations and log big minutes (23:00 - 25:00)
Really good skater. Can lead the rush with the puck on his stick or join it late as an extra layer offensively. Distributes more than he shoots. Sees the ice. Elite hockey 'IQ'
On the PK he is quick to space and uses his long reach to his advantage. Leans on people. At times he will play heavy but it's not a consistent element of his game.
