Anyways we are stuck with him so I guess we just hope that he can help out the team.
The "shelter." The Oilers can't shelter Draisaitl. The Flames shelter Monahan by having Matt Stajan for defensive zone starts. And just take a shift to go be Matt Stajan, work for some pucks, make some scrappy plays, take a huge hit, your rookies go "woah that guy is going to get himself killed but that is how hard i have to work to make it."
