My worry with Brodie is that I'm not sure if it's an off year. In my opinion, he's been the "same" as he's always been in his own end. Prone to tones of very costly errors that often end up in our net.
What I think is different this year, is under GGs system, he's not as greenlit, or is struggling to get as greenlit in teh offensive zone. So we aren't seeing the great offensive plays and production from him as we did previously, which made us forget about his defensive short comings. I worry that Brodie maybe simply isn't as good as we thought prior.
All that said, I still think he's a top 4 guy on a great contract, just maybe not the budding Norris candidate we thought he might be. I still think given the contract, what we need is to find him a better partner and he might start to play and contribute a little more.
