He's not a great skater, Not great on the boards, constantly ices the puck and is hemmed in his own zone for long periods of times multiple times per game. His advanced statistics are dreadful. I also hate how terribly he plays attacking forwards on the rush, he just continues to back up and allows the forward to rip a dangerous shot on goal every time.
Positives for him is that he blocks an insane amount of shots and has a decent breakout pass.
Now, while I do think he is overrated, I still think he's an excellent bottom pairing d-man. We would definitely need to upgrade him though if we even dare to imagine competing with the Ducks or Hawks.

what in the world does this guy have to do to get a pat on the back?
his season was one of the gutsiest performances i've seen, and the added bonus was, that i totally didn't see it coming.
