Dion Phaneuf NEXT Scott Stevens

jzqt · 10-22-2009, 04:27 PM

Dion seems like the next stevens to me. He plays well and for sure he can deliver hits. Possibly the next Stevens!!!

Phaneuf's name doesnt belong in the same sentence as Scott Stevens'.

Epsilon · 10-22-2009, 04:29 PM

This is so 3 years ago.

The Grinder · 10-22-2009, 04:29 PM

Yes they both like open ice hits and well thats it.

Don't think so buddy.

poeman · 10-22-2009, 04:33 PM

lmao Dion Phaneuf and Scott Stevens in the same sentence...what a joke.

First of all, Dion will never ever be the leader like Stevens was

I don't know, Stevens wasn't much of a leader in his early days with the Caps. Dion could grow into it.

nor the defenceman...

Post this when he learns to play defense.

FolignoQuantumLeap · 10-22-2009, 04:41 PM

I remember Scott Stevens actually playing some defensive hockey in his day.

MaxV · 10-22-2009, 04:48 PM

Perhaps at some point in his career Phaneuf will be a great all-around player, but he still has flaws in his game.

openicehit04 · 10-22-2009, 04:57 PM

stevens never finished a season a minus player. NEVER!!!!!!

**Washington Capitals** · 10-22-2009, 05:12 PM

This thread is a disgrace to Scott Stevens.

**sa cyred** · 10-22-2009, 05:13 PM

I think Ian White will be the next Scott Stevens

(for anyone who gets it

)

New Jersey Devils · 10-22-2009, 05:14 PM

no he is not. dion phaneuf is the next dion phaneuf. not even close to stevens

m83 · 10-22-2009, 05:14 PM

Not even close.

bohlmeister · 10-22-2009, 05:15 PM

You spelled Ed Jovanovski wrong.

Sandlak · 10-22-2009, 05:34 PM

Dion Phaneuf is the next Denis Gauthier, except Gauthier was better defensively.

crazyforhockey · 10-22-2009, 05:41 PM

DIon is better offensivley but no where near Stevens prowess as a defenceman

There's no way to say whether or not Dion can turn into a Scott Stevens. Despite everyone's belief he is the worst actual defensive defenseman, he was only a minus player last year. A plus the years before.
Scott Stevens was also better offensively in his early years and began to grow into a defensive player while sacrificing his point totals.

Dion sure isn't even in talks with Scott Stevens as of right now, but it's a possibility.

FGisGreat · 10-22-2009, 05:52 PM

Anyway, Dion, like Stevens, like to deliver big hits

That's it

Phaneuf needs to learn how to play defence. Yes he has 5 goals already but he is horrible defensively. Beyond horrible. He doesn't even throw hits anymore (which is fine, because if he tried he'd end up even more out of position than he normally is.)

Prudentius · 10-22-2009, 05:55 PM

Fantastic, somebody that makes a career out of destroying other great player's career.

Hall of Shame.

Can't believe that ********* is in the HHOF. And we wonder why hockey isn't more popular in the U.S.
