He started to try and play like a top pairing Dman which he isn't. Dion was at his best when Regher played against the other team's good players and all Phanuef had to do was throw big hits, yapp in between whistles, and get lots of PP time.
Phaneuf is still a good player. He will just never be worth 7 million to a good team. Injuries have also slowed down his physical game
