Yeah I wish we had a top pair guy to stabilize/teach/shelter while our young guys continue to develop. It makes a massive difference to a player's development . Just look at Josi( Weber) and Brolin (Suter) and even Subban ( Markov/George's).
It helps to have that veteran example to follow. The Oilers have all of Andrew Ferrence and Mark Fayne to look up to . Need more that that when you place your hopes and prayers on Justin Schultz, Marincin , Klefbom, and Nurse one day being your top 4.

Most people haven't a clue about the Wild (understandably) so let me correct you. The correct spelling is S-p-u-r-g-e-o-n and the proper pronunciation is Dum-bah. He's not much of a play maker, but we like him as a gritty 4th liner that can stand toe to toe with anyone.
