But three other guys (11,28,55) who seemed the most upset at the coach last year, sat on the fence all offseason, unlike Toffolli, about committing, allowed to by the Flames, and none of them so far look rejuvenated. Was that a miscalculation?

Nah. Toffoli had a career season. Re-signing would have been a mistake. I figured he’d get points this year, looking at who he’d get as linemates. But long term it was time to cut ties. It has nothing to do with the other guys, all of whom except Backlund, might be moved. Hell maybe even he gets moved depending on how the year plays out.
