Within a couple years only Nilson was on the team. And he never made a dent afterward.

Those guys were acquired at the deadline so of course they weren’t team leaders in scoring during the regular season. Try looking at the playoffs now.
You’re probably the first person I’ve seen try to diminish the impact of those deadline moves.
