History
2007-08: As a Prince Edward Island Rocket, Southorn contributed 12 goals and 19 assists in 69 games. He added 70 penalty minutes, and wasn’t afraid to get in a few fights over the past season.
Talent Analysis
A strong and physical defensive defenseman, Southorn makes a name for himself by making the lives of opposing forwards difficult. Usually poised and calm in his own end, he panics a bit with the puck under pressure and doesn’t always make the right or the safest decision. A strong skater, he has some offensive potential, though his lanky frame leads him to holding the puck far away from his body.
Southorn is a rangy player who uses his size and strength effectively. He is a good skater, and can occasionally pinch in on offense. Although he possesses good physical tools, he needs to improve his decision making and consistency.
He is a big blueliner, and is not afraid to pinch in on the play. He enjoys joining the rush, but is not simply an offensive player.
Future
The defenseman is still fairly raw, and will need more time to develop in the QMJHL.
