Way to go Kenny. You let another tough guy slip away.

To me,this signing doesnt make much sense for Anaheim.Will he just be there for depth?Because they seem to have their defense set up.it should look something like this:

Niedermayer-Whitney

Boynton-Mikkelson?

Wisniewski-Brookbank

Festerling

Eminger

Correct?

Without Pronger and Beauchemin, their defense has gotten much weaker, especially with the ice time they ate up.

This is a physical defense, but full of guys who are slow and have limited puck movement skills. They're in trouble on the blue-line.

The defense is definitely weaker, but Whitney and Niedermayer are more than capable puck-movers.

Yeah, but that's just their top pairing. They need more depth than that on defense.
