“If this is a copy cat league and you’re seeing teams that have success on that third pairing, they have trees. They don’t have shrubs.”

Love the take on Branny.
I've said it many times, if you pair Branny with a big guy that is solid at clearing net front I think it can make a great third pair. Someone like Lybyshkin or Edmondson (both UFAs which is why I use them as examples) comes to mind or Kleven if you think he's going to take a big step. None of the guys on the current roster that he plays with really for that description (JBD sometimes plays physical, but he still isn't what I would call mean in front of the net).
Never!!!
Our D is NOT feared in any form or fashion. Some great puck movers and offensive talent but we need two, at least, shut down tough D-men in the line-up.
