Emelin, Gorges or Bouillon. are not the same type of D as Kaberle.
Can't compare apples with oranges.
IF.. and that's a big IF Diaz can man the PP, then your argument is valid.

But I doubt Molson agrees to pay Kaberle to sit on the bench or the pressbox.

Emelin can play on PP.
- QuebecPride

Bump for Dan.

Conclusion: QP is almost as big a homer as Eric.

Shut down D versus PP QB.

Asking Cube, Gorges or Emelin to man the point on the PP will not jump start this PP out of the basement.

Many will look at a player's size and stats to evaluate their talent... What do you wanna do?

Assuming Markov stays healthy (big if), Kaberle will be on the 2nd PP unit.

PK and Markov both like to play left D on the PP, might not work together.

so you'd rather have four offensive defensemen in the line up than 3, and you eliminate what you really need, which is some toughness on the backend that Bouillon helps bring?

Considering PK is also better on the left side, we don't need Kaberle don't you think? If, big if like you say...

Toughness wins you games, not goals.

I would be beyond shocked if Bouillon ever sits out a game for Kaberle. Aside from the fact that Therrien loves Bouillon, and it was Therrien who insisted on bringing him in, the Canadiens don't have a problem moving the puck.

If anyone sits for Kaberle, it'll be Diaz. And all I'm saying is, I'm not giving Kaberle the start over Diaz, unless Diaz can't produce on the PP. Diaz is much, much more reliable on a regular shift.

balance on the blue line matters. the Canadiens had arguably the softest D in the league last season. You need to be able to get the puck before you can take advantage of having good puck movers.
