So Staal underachieved, exclusively under Peters. Could have been Staal, could have been Peters, could have been both, could have been something else.
Can you say Peters could have pulled Staal out of his funk? Can’t say for sure.

That is the only point though. To say that Peters is 100% the reason Staal had a bad season or lost his love for the game is foolish, there is a lot of other stuff going on with that team, roster, the player individually that plays into it.
