Phillips has to learn the same lesson St. Louis learned & most don’t.

Until he’s a defensively conscious safe player in the coaches eyes he won’t see a regular shift. Prove he’s not a liability, then expand his game as he builds more confidence & the trust reciprocates.

In doubt this happens here. Martin St. Louis chose to sign in Tampa because they were the bottom of the league & he saw opportunity. Phillips needs to go to a similar team where he can spread his wings & be given the opportunity to make then learn from mistakes.
