I don't get the lukewarm reception. Really solid defensive defenseman with plenty of playoff experience that'll end up in a 6/7 role. They paid almost nothing for him. 

 

Yup...One down, and 2 to go!

 

-3rd line center

-(Cheap) scoring RW

Yeah he's a solid player, would be perfect if he was a lefty.

 

It's good to have a backup for Schneider anyway, he's been good, but it's also been just 25 regular season games.

I'm good with this, but I kinda hope he can play both side. I like the idea of a safety net for Schneider but they can't go in with Nemeth as a regular.

 

Schneider didn't have his best games over the weekend.

I think the hesitance is he's a RHD and that means replacing Fox, Trouba, or Schneider. Schneider has played well, but I could see wanting more experience in that slot. Unless he plays both sides, we're still gonna see Nemeth and I don't think any of us want that. More moves to come, fingers crossed, that don't involve Schneider going the other way.
