And that’s because people underrated Lindholm and Hanifin because they assumed they were done developing. That was a real bad assumption. It’s an assumption some posters continue to make about players like Bennett and Hanifin who still have room to grow, improve and develop.
Sometimes the fresh start helps. It seemed to help Lindholm. It may be what Bennett and Jankowski need. But they are assets and it would be foolish for Treliving to give them away for too little.
I’d say some fans here definitely underrate the value of some of our players. It could be for the following reasons
1. The poster tends to view things negatively in general
2. The poster puts too much emphasis on current play and not enough emphasis on career play or future upside.
