In previous profiles of other 2020 NHL draft prospects, I’ve picked guys who I find interesting and who have different reasons that I think have made them “sleepers”. For reference, or if you wanted to read the other profiles, they are as follows:
- Tristen Robins (profile here).
- Veeti Miettinen (profile here).
- Karri Aho (profile here).
- Samuel Knazko (profile here).
- Zayde Wisdom (profile here).
This time, I am looking at an American defenseman who has the size (6’4” and 210 lbs), the premium position (right-shot defenseman), and the flashes of huge potential, but lacked the exposure due to a very unique choice for his development path.
