The Brookbank Dilemma


So it's the offseason and all the speculating on which busts Murray will bring in is giving me a headache so let's look at one possible viable partner for lubo this year....

             Looking at Sheldon's stats you can tell immediately that he is no scoring threat in any situation. However, if you need a solid makes the safe play 100%-the-time-player then you might get a good 1.5 mil investment. That's the highest I would offer this guy and I see how he evolves in a top4 role. Remember he made Whitney look good when paired with him. So instead of using up all that cap space how bout go after a cheap easy option that wants to stay in Anaheim... sounds good to me

Poll
Are you comfortable with Sheldon as our shutdown d-man and allow him to pair with Lubo for an entire season?

I’m not comfortable with him playing that kind of minutes on a regular basis. Maybe to fill the spot here and there in case of injuries but I’m just not sure he’s ready for that kind of ice time.

There's nothing to see here. And nothing gazes back at me.

I think he can do it. I thought he handled the pressure of forechecking very well in the last half of the season and manned the blueline quite well. He is not the all around guy that I want on my PK though.

No… but jesus not Eminger.

Dammit, I've run out of nipple glue! Always at the worst times!

I’d have Pavel Trnka serve as our shut down D-man than Eminger.
