And for Pronman to praise his smooth skating, again for a 17 year old that is already 6'4", that's pretty exciting.
This is the big thing - what he did is so rare for a defenceman. In the last 10 years there have been 4 defenseman that have played in the NCAA at 17 years of age.

Noah Hanifin
Zach Werenski
Dillion Simpson
Yan Kuznetsov

That's it.

For me these two spots were reserved for Kuznetsov and Kinnvall.
