I never said he was lazy or didn't try hard. he just isn't a very good captain.

I mean he was my favourite dman for years here. Even when everyone here thought Phaneuf was the next Bobby Orr. Hated it when Sutter banished him to the KHL. Total warrior, dishing huge hits and blocking every shot coming at him.
He's broken.

I guess it's not really his fault if Ward and Sutter keep putting him out in key situations and on the PP. They should have started cutting his minutes last year and this year they should have started to bench him and making him a 5/6 d.
