The fact is the team just doesn't have enough good players. Adding some grit won't solve that.

I think we have plenty of talented players, it's just that none of them are centers. Iginla, Tanguay, Hudler, Baertschi, Stepniak, Cammy, Glencross, Cervenka are 8 talented wingers when we only really need 6 for the top 3 lines. If we could change two of them into equally skilled players who are natural centers I think we would be a good team. Similarly the Defense is skilled enough, and if Kipper wasn't hurt then goaltending is fine as well. But just like every year since the early 90s we don't have enough/any top quality centers.
