Playoff beast Joel Armia scores at a 30pt/season pace in the playoffs. He is already past his prime, so I don't see the point if deferring to his playoff production if he's not the same player he was in his last playoff series. He's allegedly injured right now.
Doesn't it make sense to replace Armia with a younger, quicker, more explosive player? It's not like his production or availability will be hard to replace. The FA market and the trade market will have bottom6 players who can put up 30pts/season with 15min of icetime/gp.
