Ben Shelley: Analyzing the Derick Brassard signing

He will be fine as a 3C and get some PP work. I can see 30-35 points if he stays healthy.

Maybe, but I'm more interested in how he performs defensively. If he can help shut down some of the top opposing centers, he will have earned his $1.2 million. Any offense will be gravy.

Well JS we need a lot of gravy

Lots of talk about prospective AHL markets tends to come and go, but this Long Island arena plan has shown some staying power.

Based on info that I've gotten and respect, source-wise, it's worth keeping an eye on here.

Not a chance. You’re most likely looking at our roster right now. I knew that in July minus brassard.

You’re probably right. But the good news is the isles have prospects and picks to acquire any needs as the season goes on. I could see the isles doing something right before the season starts.
