Who are you quoting there? Did you watch Kopitar when he was 17? Like I said, Button grades his skating at 4/5. He'll never look explosive but in absolute terms his skating is not below average. His feet aren't going like a smaller, more explosive player, but I don't see him as someone who can't get from A to B.
