Neutral Zone Scouting Report
"Smaller, quick skating, mobile defenseman. He has excellent quickness and speed which he uses to jump into the play offensively and quickly retreat to his defensive position. He has excellent footwork which he uses for transitions to quickly change to a defensive position. He is quick with the puck. He made effective transition passes often using the middle man and hitting his man in-stride. He made a smart play off the opening face-off in game 1 recognizing that his forward had a step on the defenseman so he immediately threw the puck deep into the R corner leading to a chance at the net."

Neutral Zone Scouting Report
"Creative puck mover that likes to make plays in the offensive zone. His blue line work is impressive being able to keep pucks alive and staying calm under the pressure of blocking forwards. He likes to makes little fakes on the blue line which will throw defenders off for a little second but this gives him enough time to do what he does best and set up a scoring chance. When he does shoot, his movement along the blue line allows him to create lanes for himself." Game Report, October, 2021
