"Can you say underrated? Havelid was drafted by the Ducks in the third round of the 1999 draft and is in just his fourth season in the NHL. It is commonly accepted that defensemen take at least five years to fully mature, so by that yardstick, Havelid should just be hitting stride, if you don't count the full year he had to spend rehabbing a fully torn ACL and partially torn MCL. But he was 100 percent for this season, and it showed. He averaged over 22 minutes a game and finished the year at a plus-5 with 33 points. "Nicky played phenomenally all year," said Anaheim assistant coach Lorne Henning. "He's very well-rounded, very smart defensively and offensively. He's in the right position all the time, and he has great hockey sense.""
