I think we'd be much better.
After acquiring Hamonic and drafting Valimaki I fully expected Brodie to be traded for a good scoring winger, Does anyone really believe that Rasmus Andersson would have that many more brain farts as Brodie this year that the extra scoring winger wouldn't make up the difference? I truly believe if this team had another pure shooter on the PP(and a PP coach) we would have at least 4-5 more wins

If this team misses the playoffs Treliving should be fired for not managing his strengths to fix his weaknesses, and I hope he takes the $3 million a year for nothing blowhard with him
