He's looked good for the most part, racked up some points, but man his blunders/mistakes/idiocy have been huge black marks for him, and have really hurt his team.

He's taken two bad penalties in a 6 game series, and he has 5 points in 5 games. Prior to that he had 15 points points in 10 games. One of the bad penalties was a cheap shot in reaction to Barkov taking a headshot, and tonight he got high-sticked while he was ripping someone's helmet off. I think that boils down to one stupid penalty, because you can't let a rival take shots at your captain/best player, and then even tonight...the refs should have called 1 on each side.
Yes, the positives vastly outweigh the negatives.
