That pick and those dollars could've easily been allocated to a better player who can actually win draws or play with some pace or just be good. This is a flawed roster and we need to add some better forwards if we want to contend. We've been very fortunate with Gaudreau and Smith's incredible play up to date, but night after night, we're not getting enough from too many guys.

Why do you need to have a right handed center out there when the alternative is Brouwer? A slow turd that has no chance in outplaying O'Reilly. Toss handedness out the window when it comes down to putting a completely inferior player on the ice in such a critical situation.I'd rather have anyone on the roster, even Matt Stajan out there in that situation and the fact that Gulutzan and co feel otherwise is highly concerning.
