Except that Sarich doesn't skate well and Sieloff doesn't have that problem. Not to mention that Sarich only threw the occasional spectacular hit. Fans seem to remember him being more physical than he was on a regular basis. Sieloff brings it consistently from what I've seen/heard.

From what I've seen of Sieloff I think he has a higher upside than Sarich. Hopefully the injury won't derail his career.
