Not really hard to believe as there was no reason not to believe in his upside + he was amazing in his first stint on the roster which was ended by an long-term injury.

It is not crazy at all to think in another scenario, in which he doesn't gets f***ed over by multiple long-term injuries at the worst possible timings, he's an established and producing offensive defenseman for this team in the top 4 right now as they'd have traded Pionk like a season ago because they don't need #44, #4 and #14.
This Heinola/Stanley bashing is so freaking annoying... It's a shame and I just don't get why people act by agendas against own players. Obviously I don't mean to target you, Sip. You're just one of a whole bunch.
@Gil Fisher ran with the award for "biggest agenda"-post this time.
