His production is indeed impressive. Could you please tell us more about his game, play style, strengths/weaknesses, and his projection?
Cause I'll be honest, I just watched all of his shifts from a recent game, and I can't even tell what type of defender he is. He shown some decent physical play in his own zone with good stick work, but he was also very passive/late on many plays including in front of his net and off the rush, and caused two mistakes that lead to goals against his team. He carried the puck a few times deep in the OZ, but did not show any sign of creativity or great skating, although he seems to have a very good shot from the point. He shown signs of good anticipation, but also seemed lost on many plays. Do you have similar observations or was it just a bad game?
I know it's only one game and I'll have to watch him more, but I ended up having way more questions than answers after that viewing, more than I usually do after watching isolated shifts of a B/C-rated prospect for the first time. I even went back and watched all of his points this year, and I must say I was unfortunately not impressed by many of them (most of his points seem to come from his shot on the PP or from secondary assists where he is not really involved in the play).
Does he project as a 6'1" physical bottom-pair dman or there's more?
