If we could add to someone like Bennett and acquire Saros this team would be MUCH better off.
I also challenge anyone to statistically show me how Brodie is going to magically become a good defender after two straight seasons (~160 games) of bottom 6 level play.

Brodie is going to be better because he's playing with Giordano. There are several years of tape to back this up, along with the accompanying stats. He also hasn't suffered any major injuries that would rob him of his mobility.
Brodie's biggest area of concern was decision making. When one option is always going to be "give it back to Gio", I bet you the "Brodie's Back" articles start showing up before November.
TJ Brodie is the least of this team's worries going into 2018-19.
