I get much of the Dion hate on here, but saying he sucks is borderline stupid and ignoring the numbers due to bias.

Whether you're into advance stats or not, the simple fact of the matter is that Dion DOES NOT suck. While I say that, I also will say he's not the equivalent of Weber or Seabrook (and others) either. He's a really good d-man who's likely overpaid on his current contract by a million-ish (this, of course, is debatable).
