I used to be a big Orpik critic, always thought that he was good around the perimeter (standing skaters up at the blue line & crushing them along the boards), but his play in the slot really took off last season. With Scuderi back, I feel as if we have 2 solid anchors at the blue line which has been lacking since we last won the Cup.

I don't know if i consider either guy an anchor at this stage of their careers, but even the mold of anchoring, stay at home D should help
