No risk in this deal. At the very least he brings some veteran leadership to the team. He may be slow but he can still park himself in front of opposing goaltenders. I always liked Knuble.
AFter seeing the horrible PP Homer most likely thought that at least Knubes can help it by standing in front of the net. Neither Shel or Ses can do that. Plus fill in on one of the top 3 lines if needed. Its a great depth move.
Either way its nothing against the goons I also agree that I'd like to see Ses a little more but not at the expense of McGinn he looks like he can play NHL hockey now plus fight when needed. If he turns into Toc I will lose my mind next jersey I buy for sure!!!!
