I think like Moon you have already made up your mind on him and outside of winning a Norris nothing is going to change your opinion of him. He's a good skater and positionally sound. He's a little weak along the boards and coughs up the puck on occasion but most of the time he quietly goes about his business. Couldn't ask for a better depth defenseman IMO.

Well given that the majority rate his play at C or lower, im feeling pretty good right now.
To suggest he pushes Giordano out of the top 4 is lunacy, and the debacle he was when paired with Bouwmeester saw him in the press box the next few games afterwards. He is fighting to stay in the lineup these days, which is about right in my opinion.
