Yes he is. I'm a firm believer he is our best natural defensemen in our system. The kids a stud. He won't wow you in the offensive zone but will be a mobile shutdown defensemen who can hit and fight.
Ya he is the modern day version of the old school stay at home guys.
Pure shutdown and he should be good enough to shut down the best the game offers (if healthy he will he shadowing McDavid in USA vs Canada).
He is also apparently a natural leader. Might of worn the C or at least an A if he didn't get hurt and his status wasn't questionable.
