He was always garbage, the stat watching fans were fooled by his numbers. Guy was always atrocious at defending, soft, very low defensive IQ, but had some offensive skills.
Realistically he's a number 6 D man that should be QBing the powerplay if you don't have a true #1 capable of it, or QBing the second PP. Lots of people who didn't watch enough of him were fooled by looking at point totals vs looking at how he plays the game.
