He's not going to just instantly become a defensemen who's tougher to play against over night. They really need to try and pry out Jacob Trouba who would suit our team much better.

For sure. But take care with +/- stats ... I raised that last season here too and still have the scars from learning how useless that info is supposed to be.
Like CliffFletcher says ... the Bruins let him walk when it was going to cost them real money to keep him.
