I mean, I guess it'd be nice to have an Adam Fox (we did at one point), but the Hurricanes were 3rd in the league in goals scored by defensemen. I'd rather have 6 very good defenders than one elite one and a third pair we need to shelter. All 6 are excellent defensively (save DeAngelo, who is subbing for Pesce), and they scored 47, 43, 37, 26, 22, and 13 points (and 11 in 31 games from TDA). This is not a team who is very lacking in the puck moving department, they just don't have one guy who scores 80 points. Those guys are usually questionable defensively, anyway (save in the case of Adam Fox).
