Sure it does. He always had to cover Butler. If he takes a slapshot and it gets blocked it's a 2-on-1 the other way against Butler who is dead meat. Sutter always played it safe. He didn't even let Phaneuf take a slapshot during the Worlds.

He's got a good, low, deflectable slapshot. I think we'll see more of it this year.
