Hes gotten better to the point where it looks like he maybe can be a consistent NHL #6 guy. But when it comes to expectations, I think everyone thought he'd be able to provide a bit of offense to this team and that just hasnt happened at all.

Yup... Age definitely plays a part, so does his $1.75 mil cap hit.... If he wants to play for $900K next season, I'll entertain utilizing his services, but I don't see why he should earn close to $2 mil again.... Not for a filler #6 defenseman who's adequate but not really above average.
