he's in a league of his own this year. There's outstanding offensive defensemen in this league who'll probably score more points, but his defense really separates him from the pack. Just take the game yesterday, there were several excellent plays where he'd knock a puck away to break up a potential breakaway, block shots or lift a stick. The offensive numbers are just gravy. He's just darn good at both ends and I'm super happy that he finally gets the recognition he deserves.
