I think Hickey is still going to need some seasoning, but we absolutely need to sign him. He can skate as well as Brodie, but he plays more of a Stone type game overall - hard on pucks, rough-and-tough, plays the body, and fearless blocking shots. Also has a one-timer that he can get off without needing a great pass.
A Hickey-Andersson 3rd pair is exactly what you want if you're a cup contender.
