I don't know if this has been asked before but what is his potential ceiling? And what current nhler could he be compared with for playing style and point production?
Pretty similar to Ryan Whitney or Duncan Keith. His ceiling is probably a #1b type of defenseman. Most likely will be a #3-4.

I think when the guy threw out the name Duncan Keith it was as a style comparison as opposed to saying he will get 70 points, win a Norris, a stanley cup and a gold medal.
He IS Tom Gilbert - maybe a bit more physical, but their age-related stat comparisons are frekin' uncanny. I don't know why people never make this comparison considering they are on the same team:
