He was on the list of few imports I’d retain, prime age and supports the speed-based transitional game Fox will base our team on again this year. I rated him as a steady presence I didn’t notice too much, a good thing for a defenceman.
Also deployed on our PP regularly which was towards the top of the standings.

Very happy with Schulze being back - an excellent skater, which Fox teams rely on heavily.
He was excellent on the PP, I think in the right role with those around him he will thrive again and put up plenty of points for us. He was obviously asked to step up last season following Todd's injury and he did. I think if we improve the D generally with some better stay at home d-men and allow him to play the role suited to his style he will be an excellent player again who other teams would snap up in a heartbeat. He never seemed to leave the ice at times towards the end of the season.
