Fantenberg is left handed. I know that Travis prefers to play Dmen on their correct sides due to the speed of the game. Back when I played I didn't care, there were benefits to playing the off side, like walking the blueline forward and having a better angle for shots and passes, but hearing Friedman and Marek on their podcast I realized something that I hadn't thought of, the first pass as you come around the your net is either on your backhand or delayed which with the speed of the game is significant.

thats a really good point. I think with injuries tho its nice to have guys that have played both sides even if not ideal. I haven't seen enough of Fantenberg to know if he's able to deal with this situation better than other lefty's, I suspect he's not a liability on the right side since we've only carried him as our 1 backup d most of the season.
