Talent Analysis
Excellent one on one, good skating, sufficiently physical. Can improve poise, puckhanding and offense.
Notre Dame hockey coach Jeff Jackson on Lind (Nov. 2009): "Kevin has really come into his own over the last year. He really gained a great deal of confidence in his game during his first year of junior hockey in Chicago. He's got great potential for a big guy with his size and skating ability. He's shown that he can do things with the puck. His development has improved his ability to see the ice and make plays. We expect him to be able to contribute at both ends of the ice and down the road he'll develop into a fine college defenseman."
Future
Committed to the University of Notre Dame for the fall of 2010.
