Highly under-rated left defenseman who is a puck mover with excellent stick handling abilities. Smallish, but a skilled puck handler and carrier. Highly agile four direction skater who makes good lateral moves in his carries, and will join, even lead the rush as he loves to activate. Makes tight sharp turns and changes in direction thwarting forecheckers, and is able to make quality outlets under duress. Had a tremendous final game in the U-18 Five nations Tournament versus Sweden, with a goal and three apples. Does damage as a power play quarterback, with pucks to the right spots, and also is a decisive puck mover in his own end at even strength. Anticipates well defensively and steps in to break up passes with an active stick.
