I disagree. I think he's an effective player who's better than a guy like Bollig who brings...what? A fight every 20 games? How would you justify Bollig staying in the NHL over a guy like Byron? Paul Byron is a fast, albeit small 4th liner who can be effective if he's used properly. I would take him on my 4th line anytime. If paired with a couple fairly big guys, he could be quite valuable.
