BRAD
LANGFORD
Dave Barr assessment… “Plays very hard in front of the net. Very strong and tough on his skates. Uses size well.”
| Position: Defence | Born: 02/18/1990 |
| Team: New Liskeard Cubs | Home: Haileybury, ON |
| Ht: 6.00 | Wt: 180 lbs |
Langford is a simple stay at home defensemen who plays an efficient and effective game. Langford possesses good size, finishes his checks and makes his defensive responsibilities his number one priority. Langford will clear the zone, finish his checks and compete.
