unfortunately for him, he's not really a high caliber NHL defenceman. He's more of a 5-6 than a 1-2 or a 3-4. He is highly skilled but for some reason, his foot speed and decision making abilities aren't on par with the better D-men in the game. Hopefully he learns.
if you look more closely at my profile pic, you'll notice that it's Biggy Smalls wearing an Ottawa Senators jersey and not an actual pic of me lol I played Jr A and Jr B level hockey in my late teens as well as having billeted OHL players for 5 years and being the water boy for the Sudbury Wolves of the OHL for all 5 of those years. One of the players we billeted was a first round draft pick and had a relatively decent NHL career. So I do have a good frame of reference for high level talent, even if I myself don't possess such talent.
