That's part of what I said, not all of it, but leave it to you to cherry-pick. Perhaps I should have clarified that the forward group doesn't have any trouble scoring goals: they have scored 49 in 13 games since the ASG. In that same period only two defenseman have scored; over the course of the full season the Flames have received a total of
3 goals from the blue line on the powerplay. Gustafsson addresses an obvious need. I said as much when I also said this...
