He's been knocked off the puck with relative ease for the most part, needs to increase his upper body strength for next season. Because of this, his ice time has been relatively limited.
That being said, he's still good for one or two offensive plays per game that make you take notice of him.
Still waiting for that breakout game, if Hartley keeps giving him 14 minutes per night, it'll come sooner than later. But if he's playing 4-5 minutes each night, he'd be better off playing in Abby.
Can say this with 100% certainty though... when he is on the ice and has the puck on his stick, I'm excited. Calgary could play him 20 minutes a night and lose, and I'd still walk away with a smile on my face.
