Not sure I'd be super excited about that. Only 14 games last year and none this year so lots of rust. And can he defend? Some huge minuses next to his name the last few years. -85 since 2019-20, with most of that on decent enough Dallas teams. Worst on the team three years running in Dallas, and then 4th worst on a bad Ducks team under Dallas Eakins.

I have to think there are better options for blueliners available at the deadline.

D version of Jeff Skinner. Guy plays zero defense. Don't think Knob will enjoy him. Might help give fans a distraction from Bouch though icon_wink
