He's a guy that is solid two ways, can play in all situations, and can play right away. Since Luke Schenn and Braydon Schenn are not available in this draft, and they are likely looking for a Defenseman that can play sooner than later, the potential is there. I don't see any of the other top 8 or so teams taking him, but I think NJ might have. It's not about him being better than Luke Schenn or Braydon Schenn, it's about how he stacks up to other defensemen available in this draft. He's among the best in this draft and possibly the only one that can make a team that isn't blowing things up this year.
