How many points do people expect a defenseman to put up on the second pair with little/no PP time?
30 would be a very good number in 82 games.

I do fully believe that if Sanheim signed long-term, he'd have been a PP regular and not Niskanen.
More well-rounded =/= better. Provorov had a great start to the season. Sanheim handedly outplayed Provorov last year playing the same exact minutes.
I expect they will trade off years throughout their tenures with Provorov always likely to have the usage edge to accumulate counting stats.

Wait, is this an option? I vote for this.

Hayes has the most term on the team and he got yanked off the PP to make room for two rookies.
Im more worried about his defensive play than his offensive. The Sanheim-Myers pair has been a cluster**** in the dzone lately. Hopefully they put Sanheim back w/ Braun on Saturday. That pair was good defensively.
Just to emphasize this yet again...Turns out Ghost is good enough defensively to carry a pairing.
Sometimes people don't understand what they have until it's gone.
All these goals of late have been a Myers+forward issue more than a Sanheim issue.
me too.
Alternatively, I'll take 12 undersized Gretzky clones at forward.
Of course, it's more likely you end up with 6 Matt Carles.

The chief difference is that Ghost was far more aware in terms of filling into that spot when something collapsed. He has covered for quite a few Myers slip ups in the corner and behind the net but it did require taking the risk of leaving his own man open, but it hasn't proven to be an issue yet. So something has been steadily breaking down, still. For a while. With remarkable deja vu involved.
