Whether or not you agree, claiming not to understand appears perhaps lazy (admittedly not knowing why you don't claim to understand)

The comparison made no sense because the implication was that Treliving moved out Hudler and replaced him with Brouwer (like it was some sort of one-to-one replacement).
And that is not how it works. Since signing Hudler, the Flames have added Monahan, Gaudreau, Bennett, Tkachuk and Hamilton - all highly offensive players. The needs of the team have changed. The addition of Brouwer was an attempt to fill a current need, not an attempt to replace Hudler.
