Everyone agrees that last year was a write-off for Brouwer for various reasons. That is why this upcoming season is crucial. Clearly Flames management are no dummies, they had done their due diligence and thought Brouwer had plenty left in the tank given the contract they signed him too.
It is still possible last year was an aberration. But if Brouwer doesn't up his contribution this season ( both in points and physicality, puck possession etc.) then it becomes clearer that Tre made a big mistake on this signing. But Flames fans owe Brouwer one more kick at the can before coming to this conclusion. That's how I look at it anyway.
