Maybe we hoped for more from Lazar when we traded for him and it didn't work out as hoped (yet)...but he wasn't an established NHLer brought in to instantly solve our 4th line troubles. If Klimchuk and Poirier were given 37 games with us this year, I'm quite certain they'd both have more than 5 pts and be able to hold down that 4th line spot just as well as Lazar.

What makes you certain they’d have more pts than Lazar?
