You guys will like him if Eakins can stomach giving him minutes.
He's got good mobility and offensive instincts. Was our best puck mover when he was up. Tipp hated him, too soft and didn't battle for the line / space / puck position enough.
Given how starved y'all are for RD I could see him thriving. That being said I could also see Eakins dressing him once and deciding he never will see another minute. He definitely needs a guy to help him break a cycle; he's hopeless on the boards.
But I think he has Krug like potential if he can increase his battle level.
He made the team out of camp. Impressed at times, didn't at others. He got scratched for Manning and Tipp said he was happy with the increased battle from the blueline and he's never been in the conversation since. I think there is a player there if he wants it, though. Good move by you guys, classy by Holland to give him another look with another club.
