Biggest concern with him is that he's going to be even way worse because he's well past his prime and his foot speed is declining. Because of his diminishing skating speed, I don't think he's got enough left in his tank to keep up well enough for a full season anymore.

Like I said, he had a good season stats wise. He's still the best or second best faceoff man on the Flames, depending on Monahan's night. As for footspeed, no, he's not leading many rushes. But that's not his job. I don't think he gets caught out of position because he's too slow many times.
