When are we going to see results for Tre's moves?

Not sure that I'd go with "star"...."decent young defenseman" maybe. But, like J Bo he had only one gear. Lazy with the puck, lazy and often inept with his stick (think penalties) and not a stud in the corner. Well, wait. What else is a D-man supposed to do? The only thing he did well was score - and that was good, but it doesn't make him a star.
I think we've seen some of the results from Tre's moves - what has confused the issue was a really poor coaching choice, which he now thinks he's rectified. Again, we are waiting on those results to form a judgement. Perhaps all will now come together with the coach he "really" wanted.
