Since you brought out points as part of the discussion, then he would tie for the lead as a dman with Wideman (6) if he were a Flame. He would also have more points than Gio, JBou, Iginla, Hudler, Stempniak etc. Give this guy a year or two, then you can be a better judge of him and given what he has shown, you can bet he will be a star.

This guy skates with his head up, always looking around trying to move the puck out well, picks his spots to join the rush and has a great shot that somehow finds its way to the back of the net.

hmmm i know math is hard to understand up in Edmonton, but the Oilers have 3 games on hand. I bet Wideman will have more than 6 points after game 10.
