Long term prospect on defense who is very offensively gifted and instinctive in the attack some but is still working to improve his defensive coverage, positioning, pivots, and gap control. Needs improvement on reading the opposition attacks and make better decisions with the puck in his end. On the attack he activates very well, and is a good passer there. Forces the play from the blueline, walks it well and also is good at timing his jumps into the slot to receive pucks and take shots. Has little physicality of edge to his game at this juncture.
