He way overrated Mittelstadt, Borgstrom, Vilardi etc. He underrated Makar and Heiskenan.

I think Rasmus really benefited from being paired with Gio. I think it really helps prospects develop when they get to play with and learn from stars. That's why a part of me wants Gio back as a 6th/7th D next year, so he can help bring along the next young D.
