A raw, tools rearguard with great size and can play any style you want. Skates well and the bones of his game are solid. He is a big right shot defender who can move the puck, but hasn't shown a creative offensive side to his game, and tends to make basic plays even if more rewarding options available. He still gets shook retrieving pucks under pressure and could clear out his breakouts. Projects as a reliable second pair defender who can transition pucks simply, but lacking in high end skills.There seems like there could be more offense in there than he has been able to show so far.
