Good.

Between this and Bieksa it gives some good pylon time on ice when playing the Ducks.

The only problem is that he has negative speed these days and that positioning I was talking about earlier? Yea, it got exposed a lot.

I guess if your playing in the offensive zone most of the time having a defenceman deficient in defence doesnt hurt quite as much. /colorblind greentext

He's pretty bad now; I'm surprised he could get an NHL contract at this point.

Third go round for Beauchimen in Anaheim.

I've always liked him. Somehow, he was the most dangerous Duck in our 05 playoff series. He had two morale-destroying moments - obviously the fight with Iggy was one, but he hit Kipper in the face with a shot, and #34 did not track point shots well for the rest of the series.

That son of a bitch.
