Not trying to make it about Baertschi, but my point was that if Gagner is "terrible" then you have a tendency to defend guys who are a lot worse. Baertschi is an average two-way player with a good effort and unproven offensive abilities.
Gagner is a proven offensive forward with a below average two-way game. He's at a level a player like Baertschi isn't even CLOSE to yet. So before you go calling him terrible, just know you're saying essentially the same about half the Flames team.
I know this is Calgary and every Oiler is laughably bad yadda yadda yadda, but looking at it objectively, just nah. Just nah.
