Brodin injury means we need another defenseman. I’d imagine he gets some games because they want him playing. Depends how long Brodin is out. I think k they’ll shelter him and let him run the 2nd powerplay.

Do we think Jiricek is more likely to turn it around and take off to become the next Pietrangelo, or will he be the next Bogosian, who eats minutes and is fine, but not a great top 4 D in his prime?
