1.) Roman Turek was signed to a massive contract extension, and promptly crashed back to earth.
2.) Savard was centering the top line with Iginla obviously at TW. The chemistry (and results) were not the same as with Conroy.

The decision was made to switch back. Savard then went on a pouting spree and played himself off the team, not unlike what happened in New York.
Help me with that one? Not sure what TW means.
