What are his offensive zone starts? If I had to guess based on his role, he's a defense-first player, so he's never going to be consistently above 50%, but he's also not really that far below 50 either, so it's not a big deal considering his role.
I've always liked him begrudgingly. He often makes big and important plays that turn the tide. The forechecking abilities are very high end. He was never going to leave Winnipeg with his dad there now and being appreciated so much in the organization. Good on him for getting a long-term deal.
