But right now I see nothing to suggest this guy is an NHL player, and as another poster mentioned in another thread, I have not seen NHL-calibre play from him in over a year.
I believe a player can excel with any linemates (or at least not McGrattan and Westgarth, or something similar). Sven is getting time with Seto and Byron (who must be wondering what he did to deserve playing with those guys ... j/k)
He's tip toeing around IMO...he needs some rabid dog venom....thumbtack in the hockey pants....the tools are there but he is scared/nervous to just open the toolbox and dump it on the floor.
