All that money and assets used to assemble the defence is a waste given the coaching staff's inability to work a gameplay and system to make them effective.

At some point the gm has to figure this out. I'm going to be pissed if I hear the flames are trading assets for more d.
Wait till they traded Brodie, Hamonic, and Hamilton for scraps and then a week or 2 later, decided to fire the coaching staff.

I'm having this Savard nightmare recurring....
