He has all the tools to be a dominate shutdown defencemen. How he plays this year will dtermine whether he is a late to mid round pick or a 2nd round pick (his ceiling, IMO). First step, make the u18 team (won't be easy.)

Just wanted to bump this. This Kid is one mean piece of business, Chris Pronger like.

He only has 6 points this year, and is a minus 1, but has 79 PIM's and the majority of those are fighting majors, usually sticking up for himself or a teammate.

He pummels guys in the corners and is usually in the right spot defensively. Admittedly, he needs to work on his foot speed, he does get caught the odd time turning too late.

I'm thinking a team takes a flyer on him in the mid-late rounds, similar to Sam Ruopp last year.
