Pittsburgh Penguins / Signed
Undersized offensive defenceman who excels on the power play - Livanavage takes full advantage of that extra time and space, probing for offence away from the puck, activating down the weak side for shooting opportunities as they present themselves, and stepping into open ice to improve the condition of each play before the puck leaves his stick. -EliteProspects 2024 NHL Draft Guide
