I don't disagree, it's not a dangerous second unit. My point was that Raymond isn't the playmaker on that second unit - he's the shooter (FWIW).
To EV - you do realize a Glencross who wasn't a pending UFA who they couldn't come to terms with would easily have a spot on this team, right? It's not that there wasn't room for him.
And that Baertschi didn't have a spot on the wing not because of Raymond, but because Glencross, Raymond, Gaudreau, Granlund, Jooris, Ferland, Jones, Poirier, Colborne, Hudler, Bouma, Byron, Shore, Bollig. That's 14 wings or centre/wings when there's room for 8 or 9. And Sven didn't outplay a single one of them.
