Much bigger minutes than most teams though.

That was promised to Zub too and look what we’ve done since. Sens broken promises are very well known by NA players.

I doubt anything was promised to him. It’s a business. He’s going to be up in the nhl though.

Rosters will be expanded, d will be rotated and D will get hurt. There’s a reason they’re stockpiling them.

He's gotta earn it like anyone else. He hasn't shown anything in the NHL yet.

Haha. Neither has Josh Brown.

And earning time in the NHL isn’t really a thing. Players get promised ice-time all the time in order to sign with teams to start their career. Think Wolanin and Zub.

Brannstrom is as close to ready as he gets and has progressed as beautifully as possible. Seeing him sit over half our current blueline would be classic.
