Good penalty killers and Campbell is solid at face-offs...but they shouldn't make or break your team's season. I think Rangers fans are over estimating his value here, losing him shouldn't make a huge difference in the team's success.
Thanks-I loved Prust but that contract was huge. It's a salary cap NHL and that is the reality.
