Strait isn't a great defenseman by any stretch of the imagintion, BUT, he's above average. I'm not gonna flip out if he sucks immediately, gonna give him 5 or 6 games to get back to where he was before the injury. Once he's back to the way he was pre injury, him and CDH should help cut down the goals against.
A guy who that is a career minus defenseman cannot be considered above average.
Strait is a 6th or 7th D man on any other team with an average defensive core. I do not expect his return to cut the goals against at all, after all were not talking about Dennis Potvin here.
