As much as I personally like the idea of a pass first center, I think Bernard Lodge would enjoy his time most as a smart defender. He's already adept at tracking and blocking shots after all. Additionally, he knows exactly where he wants his defenders to position themselves to best help their goalie, so he would likely be his tendie's best friend. Another underrated part of getting to leave the net would be being able to throw out some nasty checks on the players that are particularly bothersome to his teammates. He gets to see all from his position in the net so he knows who deserves a good hit. If this causes any fights then that is fine, have fun tussling with a man who gets hit by hockey pucks for a living. Without being restricted by the bulky goalie pads it won't even be a fair fight for his opponent. In another life this defender would have scared the league for years to come, but I guess being a lock down goalie is cool too.
