This thinking is exactly what I don't get sometimes. Too often its fourth liner = PKer with grit. That's garbage, give me the best line possible, not just one filled with grinders. Sure, being physical makes you hard to play against. Want to know what else makes you hard to play against? Maintaining possession and keeping the puck on the other team's half of the ice. Megna and Gibbons are both fully capable of playing sound defense but could actually make the line somewhat of a threat.
He's an average fourth liner, which is fine for an average team, but I'd like to see more. And as Shady put it, I really don't lose sleep over him as a singular player either, and he's far from our biggest problem. Still, ignoring any problem when you have a solution right there is the kind of stuff that's brought this team down the past few years.
