What This New Defenseman’s ‘Good Habits’ Could Mean for Pittsburgh’s Future — And Why Fans Should Pay Attention
Of course, there will be a bit of a battle for playing time on a crowded Penguins’ blue line. It appears the team is opting to carry eight defensemen – one of them being top prospect Harrison Brunicke, who figures to get some runway on the right side along with Erik Karlsson and Letang.
That means right-shot guys like Connor Clifton and Matt Dumba will, likely, be faced with some time on their off-side, potentially leaving little margin for error for the left-side blueliners in Jones, Parker Wotherspoon, and Ryan Shea.
