Being that his offense is nearly non-existent, I have a hard time believing he could be a 2nd pairing dman in the NHL.
To have that 2nd pairing potential, Sieloff would need to show he does well in rushing the puck up the ice and/or using his skill/speed to create plays. If he had that ability, it'd be reflected in his numbers, even if they were just secondary assists.
I see his potential as a hard-hitting, stay at home, 3rd pairing dman.
