A wide framed defender with soft hands for receiving and sending pucks forward. At this juncture, he is more of a complimentary offensive player, but has a strong recognition to paying the defensive part of his position. Defending on the rush he is able to m mirror the attackers movements when they go one on one. Square up well, lets the attacks try a move and then closes down. He gets his stick on inches end to cut off the East-West pass. Under pressure he can play fast to elude the opposition with his quick stick to get it out in transition. Has a wide body and will fill in. A long term developmental.
