Observations:

March 2013 - Russell understands that his only road to the NHL lies in his defensive game, so he has transformed himself into being that kind of player. - Dobber

March 2012 – Russell has the offensive skills with strong passing and vision for the game. Yet like his brother Kris, his small size will be a definite obstacle to overcome along with his physical play. He is an excellent skater who can also bury the puck in the back of the net. After five years developing his game in the AHL, he is now getting his shot with the big club this season in Columbus. - Russ Bitely

Fantasy Outlook: D

Russell has transformed his game into that of a full-fledged checker.
