He had a cortisone shot in February that really worked but the effects of the injection wore off after a month and the defenseman was on anti-inflammatories the rest of the season.

He had four goals and 17 points this season with a plus-11 rating, making him a decent sixth defenseman in the deepest of hockey pools.
