I think the Canucks paid far too much for their whistle (like Treliving when he landed Hamonic), but a defenceman who can actually defend was definitely something they needed.

He already has 1.4 WAR this year (counting stat, not a rate stat) per Evolving Hockey and has been 1+ each of the last four years.
League average is 0<x<1.
Good player, but let's find out what the contract is. They could have waited for UFA and kept the pick.
