when youre rebuilding anyone CAN go but with the state of our defense, Leddy SHOULDNT go. You need some young veterans to teach the Dobsons and Toews, Wilde's and Aho's

much as Pulocks impressed, he shouldnt be teaching anyone. he's still learning himself

he’s been meh
he has not been meh, he's being asked to play up in the lineup. as he's not really a first pairing defender and playing most of the hard minutes

on the whole our defense and Goaltending is outclassed. put Bobby Orr on this team and he'd look Meh, and Leddy is no Bobby Orr.

Ville pokka and Th brennan

What a terrible return for Chicago. They traded a 23 year old legit top 4 D, and got literally no NHL games from any of the three pieces they received in return.

They also got Anders Nilsson, who actually is still in the NHL. But he didn't play a single game for Chicago.

And for a lot of us Islanders fans, Pokka was tough to give up. We had him at 2 or 3 with Pulock.

Then again, we had Reinhart at 1 so...

leddy has looked meh, you can try to explain his mediocrity in any way you want but it doesn’t hide the fact that he hasn’t impressed.

defense is a team concept and is dependent on both the system and and the individual players. if you dont understand that some players are equipped for first pairing usage and high minutes and some are not, than you dont understand Hockey. usage is the single most important factor on defense.

if we had better defenders with proper experience for the roles they are asked to play, Leddy is just fine. the fact thay you dont understand Leddy is not an Ideal first Pairing defender who is being asked to play as one, just says you dont know what you are talking about
