I was never a fan of his before this year, thought he would never learn to play a 200 foot game, so since he came up to the big club I've been watching to see what mistakes he would make and when he got sent back down. I think the time he's spent in the minors has really trained him well-he still makes a horrible pass once in a while (which can be expected for a player his age) but overall, he's been really impressive in both sides of the rink. Very very pleasant surprise for me. I think that in a few years, he could replace Brodie in the top-4.
