That was a poorly set expectation for a #13 draft pick. He played 1200 games, won 3 cups and was a clear top pairing guy for that run. He easily exceeded any reasonable expectation. I mean if Duncan Keith is the bar for what you expect from a 2nd round defenseman. You will be disappointed for the rest of your life.
