Josh Gorges or LeBron? Both? Lol

Solid depth player at this age who wasn't part of the problem in any way. They'd have been better off with him suiting up more often. Typical Buffalo fan though: "He's not Brian Campbell so he sucks!" Nobody has 6 Brian Campbells on defense. Pitt could have used a Josh Gorges in the playoffs this year to clean up their own end. Might still be playing.

Nothing to talk about here. He's done
Quite the professional though, the way he handled being mishandled

Josh Gorges.

Watching basketball is right up there with watching bowling or the cfl for me

If by that you mean "play the entire shift in your own end and then loft it to center and give away a possession," then yes, he cleaned up his own end

I can't find anything wrong with this take.

He's a great addition to a team's bottom-pair. He's best off playing maybe 12-15 minutes a night, PK time, and when I think of a stay-at-home defenseman, he comes to mind.

Got too much criticism playing here.

Fun fact: Tim Tebow kneeled during the national anthem during an entire season to protest abortion and said he couldn't stand for a flag that allows such a thing.

Everyone supported him.
