An organization purposely hurting themselves over a principal that only you have identified?
You can handwaive my assertions a million times, but it doesn't change the reality that there is a myopic view on what the organization thinks works... even when it... doesn't actually work.

Matthew Phillips has played 0 NHL games this year.

Brett Ritchie, in a season where he's been hurt for most of the year, has played 12. And still produced as few points as Phillips. Nothing on his resume at any point in his career has ever indicated that he is NHL-calibre, yet there he is. A roster regular for no reason other than size myopia.

It's got nothing to do with Dustin Boyd and everything to do with the vast majority of the NHL vs the Calgary Flames.
