The roster is teeming with LHS forwards who can do much of what Fro can do if given the opportunity. You lose a Frolik and you can plop a Dube, Mangiapane, Jankowski, maybe even Alan Quine there. Fro is exactly the kind of forward we have in excess IMO... I just don't think he's as valuable as his counting stats and two way reputation suggest. I think his skillset is very well-represented on our team by players who haven't had the benefit of Matthew Tkachuk and Mikael Backlund as regular linemates.
