SCOUTING REPORT
Chicago-area defensive prospect with fluid feet and lots of size already. Still raw, but quickly advancing as an all-around force on the backline. This a tall USA defender with an excellent overall skill package. Has a high panic threshold and stays cool under pressure, never scrambling and throwing pucks away. A sharp outlet passer in transition and when in the attack zone, he reads the attack well and uses his strong wrists to deliver precise passes. Takes away centre ice and closes his gaps well in the back pedal. Closes off passing lanes and reacts to what is happening in the moment. Will break out in transition and make good decisioned outlets, and occasional home-run pass. Consistently makes good on-ice decisions but he is a very good tape to tape passer, who isn't ruffled by pressure or breakdowns. But isn't looked at as a future NHL mailman as an attacker. He Is good offensively from the blue line and makes plays back there. Has seem some time on the power play, but really hasn't had lots of reps on the PP point. Committed to Boston College.
