So just to clarify your assertion:

- Phillips is not a strong skater, and wouldn't be one of the quicker players on the Calgary Flames
- Phillips is not a strong passer, and wouldn't be one of the bettef passers on the Calgary Flames
- Phillips does not think the game as well as the players on the Calgary Flames
- Phillips does not play the game at a tempo as high as the players on the Calgary Flames

is that correct? Those are the attribute Phillips lacks in order to succeed in Darryl Sutter's system and style of play?
