A characteristic stay-at-home defenseman with no urge to be an offensive threat, although he joins the rush from time to time. Tallinder enjoys playing physical and resolute around the net and along the boards. Not a particularly fast skater, but he is rarely off position. His work ethic is impressive and his balance and deftness is also (above) average. (EP 2015)
