not accurate unfortunately.
But my god I was shocked to see how bad he was tonight. 35% Corsi, unless he drastically improves his footspeed he's not a NHLer
You got guys like Dorsett beating him wide every single time
After watching Oilers vs Canucks I can with confidence say that the answer is yes AINEC.
I think he got walked around like 4 times in one shift.

I'd whine about this being another blatant Oilers bash thread on the mains, but we actually deserve it for this ****ing trade. 
Reinhart supposedly spent all summer working on his footspeed too.

I've been saying this for awhile. Obviously NYI saw it too. Edmonton got hosed on that trade. Could have had Barzal/Connor/Chabot and Stephens/Dermott/Aho/Carlo (just for instance) man did they blow it.

His performance tonight was thread-worthy
I see footspeed criticisms for many prospects/players and nearly always, it's not as bad as what's being said. But this is the opposite

He was on the Oilers first pairing tonight, clearly he had a spot on the Oilers blueline but might play off it

Not only is he slow but he is bad with angles and positioning and doesn't utilize his reach. Which would mitigate some of the footspeed issues.

Bit my tongue when the trade happened hoping his issues were overblown. They weren't, he's done nothing to show that he's going to be an NHL defenseman. Just real bad.
He doesn't have a spot. There are six dmen clearly ahead of him, Gryba on a PTO, and then maybe Osterle.

He's going to get passed by Bear and Jones at this rate.
Him getting beat wide is honestly a beautiful thing to see aesthetically, if someone made a highlight real of him getting beat id put it in the Louvre. It could make an AHL depth forward look like a superstar on his way to goal of the year material.

Go ahead foot
What was crazy was guys weren't even being drive wide they were just going by him like you would walk around someone on a footpath.
