That's why I keep adding the huge caveat that I wanted him on that 3rd pairing. I question my own stupidity 24 hours a day, but give a newbie a little credit.
It's not silly to say he was competent. Unfortunately analytics haters can't use this (close your eyes, skeptics), but I can. In his small sample size, he had the highest percentage of successfully exiting the defensive zone. Again, 15 touches is way too small to conclude anything, but worth noting all the same. However, I would argue it's blatantly silly to say he would make a "massive difference" right now.
