Not saying he played soft. But his first few years in the NHL he was steady but not aggressive, maybe a little starstruck. Sutter turned up his intensity and made him into the competitor he became.
Numbers don't tell the whole story. I distinctly remember him not being the nasty defender his first couple years that he is now. And I say that from watching him play, not his stats.
