I feel like we haven't discussed him enough this year. He was just named in the team of the week - 5 assists in his last 2 games.
He's putting up a point every other game, which honestly I didn't even really notice because it is more his maturity on the ice that I am impressed by week in, week out. The kid is +2 on a team that has been pretty bad all year, and that hasn't been sheltered minutes either, he was thrown in at the deep end when our D got hit with injuries and has been top 4 all year.
He is quietly one of the best '05 defenceman in the league. It really helps soften the blow of the Perron pick - Daigle looks far more like a 1st round pick at this stage. He can be an anchor for this team for the next 3 years and I really hope he isn't shopped this summer.
And another thing to be excited about - we may have another very similar situation next year in Etienne Desjardins.
