Solid skating undersized defenseman who has excellent balance and backward movement. Understands his how to play his position and uses his mobility to stay in position in his zone. Reads situations well, but sometimes gets ahead of himself when has puck possession and feels pressure.
A developing player who at this juncture isn't a solid stay at home defender or a impact up-ice offensive contributor. A NHL team will have to decide if there is upside one way or another before calling his name.
