Not writing Emile off by any stretch, but I do not see an explosive super pest in the mold of Alex Burrows when I watch this player.
Actually I liked Poirier last night, he was much improved compared to the game in Arizona.

Both get in on the forecheck, but I actually thought Poirier showed more last night in tight than Shinkaruk did.
