Stralman is better than Boyle and Girardi combined.

He is now. Hindsight is 20/20. We needed a D-man who could add offense. Stralman wasn't that guy.

And at the time of his extension, Girardi was playing at the top of his game. It's always easier to judge decisions years later, but that is the same as saying Donald Trump was an idiot for investing in the housing market in 2006, because that market crashed in 2008

This team has got to be number one in the league at killing any rush by making an errant pass. It's actually sickening.

No. He was in 2014.

I get the distinct impression that Kreider's brain doesn't work quickly enough to know what to do with the puck when he has it.

Again, we needed scoring from the blue-line and Stralman did not offer that, at all. We always complained about this and Girardi had twice as many points in the 3 years as Stralman when they were both playing here.

Actually we needed a defenseman who could complete a breakout pass and play AV's system. Something that Stralman did exceptionally and that Girardi couldn't and can't.
