He is so good at breaking up plays. I don't think it's crazy to say he is best defensive defenseman on the team and his best years are still ahead of him. Even in the offensive zone, he is never going to put up a lot of points, but he uses his reach and holds the zone well so that the forwards can do their thing. He replaces a lot of what Tanev brought to the team IMO.
I have no issue with his contract. I will if he takes a step back, but given his age, I'm not worried.
