Todd has done great things helping to develop Dmen, including young guys Schmidt, Orlov and Djoos. But don’t make the assumption he’s going to play young guys when he has a choice (he still chose Jerebek over Djoos to start the playoffs, just like Shattenkirk over Schmidt, and at times Weber over Schmidt too).
Puts in context the times last year Trotz hinted at Schmidt in over Orpik and then no change happening - seems Reirden was the reason.
Holy cow this must shake the core of Trotz haters who swear up and down he refuses to play the youth.
Turns out it’s the guy who is staying, not the one that was just celebrated for leaving.
