He surely is from Dutch descent with that surname. Very nice! He is such a tank, won't be a top line defender, but he might have a shot at being a shut-out enforcer/gritty/grinder in the NHL.

 

[Jersey Fan 12]

After two seasons playing for Dalhousie (USport) he is now in the Devils' system (Adirondack (ECHL) and then Utica (AHL)).

Given his size is there more to his potential?
