Quick question, where has this great defensive side of Moore came from? He hasn't put up the points this year, but is slowly becoming one of our biggest minute munchers and playing on the PK. All I heard from Kitchener and Springfield fans was that he could become a nice offensive dman one day, but would be trouble in his own zone. Horrible plus minus in the AHL last year, but is now one of the few bright spots in a disappointing season so far, and I've become a huge fan after believing Savard more than passed him last year. Will his offense eventually come together, and what do you guys think of him so far?

:yo:
 
He's still not great in his own zone. His skating and puckhandling are superb. His passing and shot are so-so.

The reason why he's logging so many minutes on defense is because of the injuries to our blue line and the fact that it sucks.
 
Johnny is a beast. He's always been a great skater, sound positionally, and good with gap control and stick work. Hate that he's on a division rival, but I hope the best for him.
