Somebody isn't doing enough research about who gets brought in, and the UFA signings have been... honestly pretty bad. "Oh I knew that guy back in Hanoi in 68, he's real solid." doesn't get the job done.

Utter misses?
Valimaki, Kylington, Andersson are all great picks.
Mangiapane, Dube look to be good picks.
Jury’s still out on Jankowski’s ceiling
Still too early to tell with guys like Pospisil, Petterson, Phillips.
Very interested to see if Parsons rebounds this year.
