I never said it's a bad signing - I just think it's a knee-jerk one. It's not a great one though. As long as he remains productive he'll be movable but at the same time look at his playoff stats against Anaheim - 0 goals 0 assists in 17:22. That's the team we're trying to beat and he wasn't very effective against them last year. I would love if Frolik proves me wrong and turns out to be our Justin Williams. I'm just not banking on it.
And considering a great possession players in Jooris got pushed out of the lineup for Bollig/Raymond, I wouldn't bank on that either. The only way to rid ourselves of bad possession players is to get them off the roster.
In other news, we're just a Czech Centre away from icing a Czech line:
Hudler-Frolik
