Engelland is a detriment to Brodie because he can't make a first pass. When Engelland has the puck the other team knows it's going back to Brodie or it's going to be icing, so they take away the reverse which kills a lot of breakout attempts. Schlemko can make a first pass and is a much better skater than Engelland and will allow Brodie to be more active offensively.
