Kyle Dubas addresses the TJ Brodie signing: “He fits the needs we have on the backend: The ability to play on the right side, where he has thrived throughout his career, alongside Rielly or Muzzin”

A few nuggets from the presser: They were never seriously in on Alex Pietrangelo, and the focus was on TJ Brodie right from Noon ET. Dubas thinks Travis Dermott can make the transition to right defense this season, and he believes the team will be able to perform the cap gymnastics required to become compliant without making a significant subtraction off the roster.
