The incremental talent to get from a career best 53 points to the 70-80 point level is not insignificant. Tanguay has IQ and skills that hard work alone can not recreate. And on the other side, there are roles to be filled.
The issue is more with the intellectual honesty around Stajan/Horak/whoever. Do you fix the actual problems or tinker in less impactful areas?
Given the current roster full of interchangeable wingers, you have to look at G, D, and C first before sourcing a whinger from Van
