I always giggle watching him stand in no man's land while the other players work their tails off to get him the puck back.
He makes up for it with his forechecking though, he's quite tenacious for a smaller guy.

I disagree that he's basically useless or stands in one spot... He's a winger and his job is to cover the point and make himself available by finding an open lane for a break out pass by watching the play when it goes below the face off dot.
