To be fair, Tatar is really the only one to make him look silly for it though. Gusev is fine, and Shipachyov immediately left for Russia (has been over a PPG since returning though). You could also argue Gusev was just a victim of the salary cap.

The Knights got Pacioretty by trading Tatar +... I don't think Gallant looks silly at all.
Some players just don't fit with certain teams, Tatar with the Knights was one of those cases.
