I hope so too.

The only defender that I have seen truly blossom this year (or have a good year in general) has been Nurse. He has finally been able to develop a sense of defensive awareness and risk analysis that makes him look more and more like a great top 4 option down the road. Perhaps I dare say top 2 if he keeps this up?

Well he did advocate a Loui Eriksson trade a little while back.

I sent my resume into the Oilers, and wrote it in crayon. I requested that they name me the King of the Oilers. Once it happens, you're all being hired.

The response will come back in wax crayon covered in glitter. It will say you’re overqualified.

Although the glitter would make me a little happier about it.

Truly blossom

He still has not reached the heights most fans thought he would! All the proclamations of the next Pronger were hilarious!

If I recall correctly, most said something along the lines that they hoped he’d become the next Pronger. Big difference between thinking something and hoping something.

I love the hyperbole of these guys. The emergence of Nurse. Larsson/Nurse killed it.

These are massive exaggerations.

You also believe the Av’s are back. Doesn’t make you very trustworthy I’m afraid.

Hence why I said he looks like he may be a great top 4 option down the road.

Followed by "dare I say top 2?" in a manner where I highly doubted that would happen.

Regardless, he has looked way better defensively this year than the last and he looks like the future of this team's top 4 to say the least.

If you dont get any success perhaps next time ask our PM for his crayon! Its also possible if you dont like the results you can get our PM to arrange a meeting with the Katz brass to help explain your case.
