The 17 year-old defenceman had a stellar year finished 3rd amongst all WHL defenceman recording 70 points in just 58 games, a remarkable feat for such a young player. He was a large reason and a leader in helping the Winterhawks win the division. Almost as impressive as his 70 points and 53 assists, is his +40 ranking on the year.

He was drafted by the Pittsburgh Penguins in the first round of the 2012 draft and has a very bright future ahead of him, a few more years like this in the WHL and the Penguins blue line will open up for him.
