Honestly the guy gets a bad rep but he's absolutely earning it all by himself. I'm all for defending players that get a bad rep if they can bring something to the table here and there, for example Zack Smith is not the most loved guy around here but I've always respected him he's a good bottom 6 guy and stands up for his teammates. Sure, he's overpaid but he's a decent guy to have on a team. Ceci has been absolutely terrible these last few games, like absolutely terrible. He's been responsible for multiple goals against by himself. You look at our roster and he's one of our worst players on defense right now.
I will defend unexperienced guys when they make mistakes just like I defended Ceci when he played his first seasons here because it's 100% normal to make mistakes, especially in Ottawa where for some reason it seems like it's impossible to add good veteran D to help the younger guys. At this point though... I mean the guy is running out of excuses. He's bad and that's the way it is simply. Get him on another team, fresh start different role and hopefully he can turn into a player but wow he's just plain bad right now and for the last seasons as well.
