How good is this guy? Got a future somewhere? I really appreciated his gameplay during last WJC.. IMO he played a better game than high touted guys like Coburn.. but was it only an hype or did he plays big also in WHL?

thanks

I think he's got an NHL future. He's a very smart guy, which makes up for his smaller frame and lack of strong physical play.

I think he has the potential to be a good 4th-5th defenseman in the NHL.

Could some of his WHL steadiness be contributed to his defensive partner?

You got it right on Brock. He will be a decent d man and should have a pretty good career but will never be of the stature of Dion P.

What most don't realize though is that he doesn't spend 24/7 on the point with Phaneuf.
