How does he compare to Brodin in terms of an NHL player/playstyle?

I like Dan Hamhuis with slightly more dynamic skating as my comp.

For those who are too young:

Good times. The Scott Neidermayer one was hilarious too.

I'd never watched him play but If thats true then it's pretty impressive,
Hammer was a very decent skater.

 

[B-rock]

In the clips i've watched he looks like a great skater with more impressive stickhandling than I expected, but by most accounts hasn't figured out his offensive game entirely.

 

[Bitz and Bites]

I will not be surprised if he matches Myers' minutes quite quickly.

Myers is exponentially better when he's being underplayed, it's like his brain only had a set amount of processing power each game. The more shifts he gets, the less brain power is dedicated to each one.

As a qualified HF boards medical professional, I think his long neck makes it hard for the blood to get up to his brain when he’s really working hard which would explain a lot of his play.
