A physical shut down defenseman was never acquired for point production, but I think you know that.

I would have pointed to the fact that he wasn't suited up for a single playoff game as a negative if I was you! That one has legs.

If you don't get a 1st you get two seconds. If you can't get the 2nd 2nd you get a player that has a 25% chance of playing in the NHL and you break that 2nd 2nd even.

Hopefully the 2nd and the player both make the mark but if one does you've beaten the odds.
