So how do you trade Johnny Gaudreau for a more complete version of Gaudreau, with same scoring ability and more all around game? Good luck.
You hope a new coach drives improvement in these guys.
You draft and develop new talent.

I wouldn't say that.
I think skill players routinely come to the NHL needing to develop their 200 foot game, the Calgary examples are no different.
Gulutzan talked about getting Monahan and Bennett to play the right way and when they did it will be a lot of fun to come to the Saddledome.
Was or is he successful? I'll leave that to everyone to decide, but Monahan has certainly made strides.
