RHD version of Lindgren. Seems like the type of player Gallant likes. I think hes a better option as a 7th D than Hajek

It's definitely a long shot but it would be absolutely hilarious if we ended up getting an NHL player out of this trade.

Obviously someone that was around doing scouting on Miller thought this would be a good pickup.
Was captain his last season at Wisconsin. Solid build to him. If he can skate, he'll get a look. One thing that has come out of Hartford is defense prospects. Wonder how the Coyotes felt about him to not even get a sniff last season.
Right side for Hartford at the moment is Lundkvist, Emerson, and Skinner. Left side is Robertson, Scanlin, and Tinordi. If somehow Jones isn't the 6th D, he might look good next to him.

Behind the scenes with the Wisconsin Badgers’ future NHL stars
The Badgers opened their doors as they balanced life on and off the ice, while preparing for the next chapters in their lives.
theathletic.com
"But the bond shared between Emberson and Miller is unique. They’ve been through it all. They moved to Michigan for the national development program together, they attended the draft together, and they’ve grown up travelling the world for international tournaments on the same team, playing the same position.
Miller calls Emberson his best friend.
“We’ve had some deep conversations over the last four years. We talk about life, anything family-wise, I can literally talk to him about anything. He’s just that one guy that I have as a friend that I can feel comfortable telling anything and I know that he’ll have my back and support me through whatever I need help with,” Miller says.
Emberson says Miller is like a brother.
“We can lean on each other through anything in life,” Emberson says. “It’s more than hockey at this point.”

They actually had some nice defensive prospects on the team other than Emberson, like JJ Moser, Victor Soderstrom, and Cam Dineen, among others. I have no idea why that Tucson team was so terrible, but they certainly had some good D prospects. And make no mistake, Emberson is hardly a blue chipper, but he does have potential and isn't a nobody prospect.
there goalies that combined for 67 games last year had a .880 and a .855 save percentage. thats probably shestys save percentage on breakaways lol.

Article from The Athletic in January of 2022. Ranked the 18th best prospect in Arizona’s system. Take it with a grain of salt because it is not ranked by most likely to make the NHL or meet their draft pedigree, but rather that Athletic writers, like in this one here, rank by upside.
Emberson’s game is described as very stable defensively. But very limited upside, there is a 0% chance he would ever be a top pair guy even if all the stars aligned, so he got dinged for that.
I do like it currying some favor with Miller who we will be likely trying to sign to a long term deal this time next year.
and 99 others

Seems like a plus defensive defender, no offensive game to speak of. Not exciting but these are the kind of players you want waiting in the wings. They can step in and not make game-blowing mistakes. Not exciting but I remember even O’Gara played some meaningful minutes and did a good job when called upon. Might even be better than Nemeth at this point. Seems he can skate.

Drury looks like he spent slightly more for Nemeth's dump in order to get an actual player back that might do something. I can get behind that. I'd rather the team pay a little more to get something useful then take back "Future Considerations".

Ding Ding Ding! Could be the perfect cheap 7th D that plays responsible defense for years to come. That is very valuable asset in a cap era.

Pretty nice honor to be named best Defensive Dman in the the east, while also still putting up some points.
Have we been undervaluing him the last season? I know there are is some talk here and there that he played well in the AHL (@nyr2k2 i believe speaks highly of him if i remember correctly).
We ranked him #15 in our prospect poll in the Winter. Just turned 23 last month.

I've commented on him a bunch of times this past year. To me Emberson was Hartford's best defenseman last year. He's not the most creative D but his play is just steady. He was good pretty much from the first game of the season to the last game of the playoffs. That steady play is something that coaches really tend to love. it's like you know what the player is going to give you night after night. He was dependable. His issue really is an RD and he's effectively blocked with Fox, Trouba and Schneider ahead of him. If one of them were to get hurt next year I think he would be a very effective fill in.
If I remember right he and K'Andre were a pair at Wisconsin U.
Makes the Nemeth disaster and disaster trade a little more palatable
