He still needs to step it up especially defensively. The guy was still -1 in a game where we scored four goals. I hope he comes around and plays stronger two ways. Just to compare, the Ribs line were +2.
As And-O mentioned, if Gainey uses him against Sundin, we may lose both those games unless he gets stronger on both sides of the puck without the silly penalties.
Sure the odd assist is nice but we need him to be a better two way player.
Actually Saks may need to start playing like Juneau to prolong his career in a positive way. Remember Juneau when he was in his prime, he could put up the points with Boston but when his skills and strength depleted, he was smart enough to transform his game.
