Just because you don’t notice him getting pushed off his angles, making soft and bad passes, giving up room to opposing players too easily, doesn’t mean it should be ignored. I could easily counter your “argument” by rewording your sentence and throwing it back to you. His little mistakes might not always lead to direct turnovers, but they’re still mistakes. People who watch hockey get too caught up in watching vanilla players and assume they’re flawless.Yeah that's not true, but if you don't like the guy, you don't like the guy.
Based on what exactly? He was a third-pairing defenseman the entire season, and was scratched on several occasions. We’ll see in the next few years what management thinks of him. We’re in a rebuild right now, so it doesn’t make sense to get rid of him.Not trusted by who? Management and the coaching staff seem to think highly of him.
We’ll see if management trusts him when it’s time to push for the playoffs.
