Nah... He's actually pretty good all around. Just a bit shaky at times when he tries to do too much.
If he's your #2 next to an elite #1d, or leading the 2nd pair, I think he'd be viewed more favorably... Not unlike Shea Theodore in Vegas.
20-22min/night, he'd be awesome. It's that the Habs have him playing 25+, in all situations, and the Savard is the only other dman with more than a season of experience on the Habs Blueline.
Doubt Hughes would move him for anything short of a massive overpayment. Outside of the truly elite #1D men out there, not sure many vet dmen would handle the roll he's been asked to play as well as he has
