Could be worth a late pick in the draft

Reminds me of a slightly lesser Zac Jones with not as good of skating.

He's one of the better puck-moving D in the class, high IQ, few mistakes, very accurate passes. Excellent breakouts and sure-handed carrying the puck up the ice, very effective in transition. Defensive play not terrible, probably average. He's always playing a very direct style, seems to lack creativity and doesn't shot very much.

Doesn't seem to be getting any attention in rankings (#193 in central scouting) but looks like a solid pick for the the second half of the draft.

Didn't get drafted.

My scouting report from his USHL season.

5’11 left-shot defenseman. Pretty much the replacement level player in most areas other than he’s a little undersized. He’s also one of the oldest players in the 2023 draft, so I’d consider that into his totals, but he’s scoring at a very good pace for a first time draft-eligible.

 

[Kipper933]

Promising start to his NCAA career with 9 points in his first 9 games.

In the portal per Schlossman. He'll be an NCAA UFA target whenever he decides to turn pro.

This one is troubling. Good school, one of the better coaches in college hockey replacing a long-time coach, and a great run this past season.

Unless there are personal reasons for the move (i.e. closer to home/family, coaching staff or campus he liked during the initial recruiting process) this is another knock on the portal system.

His coach left. I don’t see how it’s troubling at all.

Denver makes too much sense. A lot of opportunity there when Buium goes pro

Big Blue for Robertson.
