First and foremost he is a two way defender who plays in all situations. He has a great shot (big ole fashioned heavy slapper from the point), has good vision and tends to plays safe. Has a good amount of bite to his game also as he isn't afraid to play physical and step up on attackers who are entering the zone or who are protecting the puck along the boards. If you check his highlights, this tends to stand out.

As far as I can tell I would say it's a pretty safe bet he becomes an NHLer and a pretty effective one at that. He isn't flashy like Bru or Parekh but effective nonetheless. Solid #4 defender projection who can play PP2 and PK1.

For reference, I've seen him play live on multiple occasions (5+ occasions). He was more of a rover in the past but has really honed in on becoming a better two way defender. He now quietly takes over games if this makes any sense (right place right time, smart passes, good stick checks and lifts, etc.).
