As for the Points, I think there is much more to be had from him... He was rushed to the NHL and has played on some pretty poor teams (which underutilized him). But he's got good underlaying stats (Corsi) and the eye test says that he's a defensively responsible center. Take those bits and that I think he has offensive upside yet to emerge and that strikes me as a desirable pick-up at the right price.
