Talent Analysis
Lashoff is an offensive defenseman with size, good puck movement and shot. Served as captain in Kingston. His weakness is a lack of compete and confidence.
Future
The 2011-12 season will be important for Lashoff. He has the potential to be a number 5 defenseman with upside in the NHL, but he still has to show he can put it together at the AHL level. Lashoff will look to stay healthy, develop his physical game and add some offensive contributions.
