I was one of those who originally proposed getting him in UFA - I think it was a day after we traded our 2nd for Elliott.

I've been very disappointed so far. I don't even really look at his points - I just think back to what was I hoping to get in a UFA winger and what I was hoping to see from Troy once we actually did sign him. Points was not one of them.

-Hits
-Fights
-Playoff clutch performer.

So far he's been very meh on the first two - jury's still out on the last point. It hurts more right now because of all the times I talked him up over the offseason, but I guess there's always gotta be underperforming overpaid UFAs.
