Why are we complaining about the players that did their job?
-Jack was a PPG player with one arm.
-Nico is going to finish close to 30 goals and at almost a PPG despite a major concussion.
-Bratt set a new career high in points and is within spitting distance of the franchise's single season assist record.
-Timo was a dominant player in March when he finally got healthy, being close to 30 goals this season is close to a miracle.
It was the depth outside the core that failed to show up this season.
