Panic got us into this mess when Darryl Sutter traded one of the games best young defenseman for crap, amongst other bad moves. Thats what panic breeds. ENSURING players spots (even young promising ones) is another problem this team has had. Nothing is for sure I think many of the signings and trades were made to create competition amongst the players. And I think if Sven was healthy we'd see him take over for Cammy if he doesnt get his crap together in the next game or two.
