Mobile defender that played up a year, was the only player on his team that did this. Mature beyond his age, Good sturdy defender that is good on his edges, he regularly controls the pace of the game, very confident with the puck on his stick and has an edge to his game.
He is also verbally committed to go to Michigan for the 2024/25 season.

You are right! Just checked my copy of the latest Future Watch and there he is! Real good read and I recommend anyone to go and read it.

He's a righty. EP lists him as a leftie, but he shoots from the right.

Huge get for the Soo… I’m Very surprised by this.

He’s a decommit from Michigan following the coaching nightmare there.

I knew there was going to be a few kids that would have second thoughts because of it. Good for the OHL though.

 

[OHL4Life]

i dont know that hes as good as hyped.

Didn't see a thread for him and Elite Prospects has him as a top 24 draft guy.

RHD who is very good offensively and good in his own zone should garner some attention this year with the Soo Greyhounds.

Hahaha


He may have been drafted in the 4th round of the OHL draft. But that’s because it was widely believed he was going to Michigan.

If it was known he was going to play OHL - he would have been the 3rd defender off the board and was a top-10 talent in the draft.

Soo got a damn steal here.

 

[GermanSpitfire]

Hard to believe this kid is only 16. Super confident and composed out there tonight where he potted his first goal and assist. if tonight was any indication of what’s to come - he may be a real good OHLer sooner than I personally anticipated.

This kid has impressed me so much early.

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

He looks like a good two-way guy. Makes a lot of good decisions. Not many areas he's weak in. Doesn't really seem to be an especially high upside player or one that stands out in an all-star team, but a good player, nonetheless. Could see him as a second or third rounder in 2024.

Snapped a 12 game pointless streak with two assists today
