I here you on that. I see him in the veteran "James Patrick" type role for us.
He might not be the fastest-but his experience allows him to get good positioning.
He has Stanley Cup experience, which Ruff has stated on TV and on the radio he wouldn't mind adding to the team.
He also has a physical prescence in front of the net....which really isn't a strong point for us.(granted it's not as important as it used to be).
