Overview
Dunn's offensive production rose significantly in 2014-15. The Ontario-born rearguard played in five more games than he did in 2013-14 and racked up 23 more points.
The 6-foot, 187-pound blue-liner is adept at creating scoring chances and frequently produces by joining the rush, but he is prone to errors.
What the Scouts are Saying
"Dunn is a very good skater who moves fast and can take advantage of offensive opportunities," TSN's Craig Button wrote last month.
"Very confident in his skating and he is a catalyst for creating chances. His skating can make up for mistakes but development requires him to eliminate the unnecessary ones."
Button projects Dunn as a No. 4 or 5 defenseman.
