I agree that Brisebois has looked like a different player out there(he looked solid in the Habs 4-0 win over the Leafs last week), but that doesn't change the fact that Brisebois has been a soft, non-physical d-man who is at best an average defensive player for the majority of his career. 5 games isn't going to change many peoples oppinions of him.
