A raw talent. Hansson is an offensively skilled defenseman with very good hockey sense. He handles the puck comfortably, has good hands, a nice release and can set up plays. Strong on the powerplay. Capable skater with good mobility. Defensive game and decision making needs some improvement. (EP, 2013)
