I for one am looking forward to Troy Brouwer reverting back to one of the best shooters in modern NHL history, as he was with the Flames pre-pinky injury.

The "Troy Brouwer was good pre-inury" narrative is an excellent example of confirmation bias, when in fact is was merely a hot streak (unless you truly think he's one of the best shooters in the league).
