Or the next year when everyone could tell Brodie-Hamonic were not working but Gulutzan refused to bring back Gio-Brodie or even Brodie-Stone
Or like that time Bennett was thriving centering Gaudreau and Frolik so Hartley put him with Granlund and Hudler to give us a third line.
Don't touch a good thing. Just leave it the #### alone.

It's fair.
Very much like breaking up Gio-Brodie to get two pairings going.
Pretty sure Hamrlik left as a UFA but yeah replacing him with Cory Sarich and Adrian Aucoin was not a strong move.
As an aside Gaudreau-Frolik-Bennett played like 32 minutes together in their entire tenure in Calgary, so not sure that was ever really a thriving line.
