IMO, not for this move...but evaluating the roster and extending Jackman last year (at the trade deadline) and now acquiring a player that's relatively the same impact for ice time, but adds more pure toughness then the guy Feaster signed.
Sure, you can blame it on Jackman for getting soft(er), but at some point the buck has to stop with the guy who signed him for 2 more years and has more or less now found his replacement..and is stuck with 2 of the same guys on the roster.
