With 3 points in his last 2 games and no PP time, what does everyone think of his potential? Will he ever be a top 4 dmen from an NHL standpoint (and not fantasy team)? Will he ever be on PP1 or even PP2? Will it be this year, next year or not for a few more years?

Thank you.

From what I've read about him, he definitely has top 4 NHL dman, but is more of a two way dman than a purely offensive dman.

"It's such a fine line between stupid, and clever."

I think he definitely has offensive upside, the problem for him is depth charts. Wis was signed to a 6-year contract at $5.5 mil per year. Same with Tyutin another 6-year $4.5 mil per year... So it's gonna be a bit of a struggle for him to get PP time with those two big guns.

He also has David Savard who's a bit more refined to compete with as well...

I dunno I think he's kinda in the same situation as Voynov in LA... just stuck in a bad situation due to depth charts.

Still, if there was ever a time to roll the dice, it would be now.
