No one is, but it was a smart, risk free move for all of the reasons posted above.... such as:
- our prospect tendys get regular starts to continue their development.
- signed a legend player/coach to help on the wing with available cap space.
- Lack maybe gets 15 games if he is mediocre, but Smith will play the majority so it barely even matters. If your season comes down to how the backup goalie played, several things have gone seriously wrong.

I don't even think it's fair to call Lack a failure yet... 2 tough games.
