Regehr and Sarich are two dedicated stay at home D men in Flames recent history. Warrener is another.
They all had MUCH better production than Kanzig and Sieloff in junior.
I think it is a mistake to say that a lack of offensive production in junior is okay for players that project to be defensive players. Players with NHL potential are generally good enough in junior, and have enough acumen, that they put up a reasonable number of points.
There are VERY few players that have the level of junior production of Sieloff and Kanzig and actually make the NHL. I am sure there are examples, but I haven't found any.
Both players are incredible long shots to make the NHL. I am cheering for them. But unfortunately history just doesn't support them making it.
