I agree that Giordano was a contributor to his performance, but what about when Giordano went down and Brodie played with Engelland? He was still performing much better than he is now.

I also think a new coach could help Bennett and Jankowski grow into more complete players. If that occurs, then the Flames depth at forward looks much better.

Gaudreau - Monahan - Ferland
Bennett - Backlund - Tkachuk
? - Jankowski - Frolik
? - Shore - Lazar

Giordano - Hamilton
? - Brodie
? - Hamonic
