When he isn't paired with an elite hockey IQ, dion struggles, even when his partner is a good player.
So if I was looking at acquiring Dion, my first question is do I have the right partner in my top 3 contracts to partner with him. Edmonton does not.

Its funny now that Phaneuf's best suited defense partner so far in his career has been Roman Hamrlik.
For whatever reason, it was a perfect fit.
