Cholowski.
His weaknesses are apparent. You don't need to butcher a bunch of small samples sizes of data, advanced or otherwise. The guy is incapable of playing at an NHL intensity level. His compete is poor. He is as strong as a noodle, and not an al dente one. He provides near zero offense at 5v5 and can't play defense. He's damn near useless. His attractive attributes are being a good skater, a potential PP QB, and a PMD at ES. Unfortunately for Cholowski, there are a bevy of NHL defensemen who can be sufficient PMD. And plenty who can skate. And so his value lies, at this point, exclusively as a PP QB. Problem is, he sucks in almost every facet of being an NHL defenseman, and his potential as a PP QB is not enough to overcome that.
