Not so much at the NHL level and his defensive game is certainly nothing to brag about.
Once again, it is a huge jump from the AHL to the NHL.
He cleared waivers at NHL minimum salary for a reason, earlier In 2021.
95 games...16 points.
24 years old and running out of time, nothing more and nothing less.

For me, this is it.
He has tools, everyone can see that. But he has never shown any offensive game at the NHL level. He has just 'been there'.
His defensive game is not going to earn him a spot - it isn't horrific or anything, but he isn't stealing anyone else's job with his defensive play. He needs to bring something more than that. And so far, he just hasn't.
