Just everything you want in a dman. I have seen Duke about a dozen times over the years, never at his own birth year. This might sound like hyperbole but I’m not I’ve ever seen him make a mistake. Gaps are always strong, he always finds the perfect outlet pass right on his teammates tape. He is a special player. Not often do you find a dman at a young age who can defend like him. Playing up with his brother his whole life has proven to be very successful for him in the long run. The first time I saw him with the 03 Compuware at bantam, he was poised with the puck and knew his limitations, as he has grown you have seen him get more confident with the puck using his stick handling ability and puck control to beat forcheckers not with a stick handling toe drag but escape moves to buy time and space for his teammates to get open. A very impressive player that in my opinion is Notre Dame's best commit. Tough to find a dman who can do what he does. Going into the NHL draft will be highly touted following the success of a Cale Makar and Quinn Hughes.
