Wideman was horrendous last year defensively too but he was so good offensively that most people ignored it.

Wideman made a great defensive play against (All Hail) McDavid. After being beat wide he reached around and pushed the puck of his stick and into the boards. Not sure if I could find a clip, and I know it's just one play, but I think you're going a little far with that assessment.
