What a lame click bait article by Haynes. The guy used to be good and balanced. Maybe his new employer is wanting that.
Gaudreau is the least of the Flames problems. 18 points in 23 games during this "dry spell" or "slow start". A point a game player his entire career at a great cap hit. He'll find his game soon. I'm not worried about him.
The Flames problems is lack of depth with middle 6 forwards. Gaudreau, Monahan, Lindholm, Tkachuk aren't the issues, it's the players around them. If they go cold there is no one to pick up their slack. We need to build around those 4 forwards, not getting rid of any of them.
I don't blame Treliving either. He's tried to address forward depth by adding Kadri. Hopefully he has a plan to address this.
