Has good size and excellent mobility and athleticism for a bigger defender. His good feet and puck handling skill are plusses. May develop some offensive savvy on the attack. Still not the finish product and needs to improve on his work in the defensive zone, where he read, position, and react much better to move on to the higher levels of competition. Can deliver hard body checks. Will drop 'em and has some anger to his game.
