A valid point.

Top 6 with Debrusk in it is far more impactful than Zadorov (a 3rd pair defenseman regardless of his contract). 6 top 6 forwards rather than whatever Geekie is.

Sweeney had us drooling over size and toughness but failed miserably to address speed or offense. Again.
Everyone needs to understand not many of our forwards would be on that Dallas roster.

That's how bad it is.

JVR scoring depth, go back to the leadership of Foligno, Hall too for scoring and speed. Things went south with a few bad moves. I was hoping size and grit would be back but its not working.

Highlights:

Oesterle with 15 minutes didn't look out of place
Brown led the team with hits (but only 4)
Zaddy is awful but showed he cares (at least a bit)
Monty showed he doesn't with his non-reactions to reffing and his third period yawn
The team's PK percentage went up
We now understand better how Sway reset the goalie market.

That's all I got.

Look at those names. Veteran leadership. That’s a massive miss this year too and I’m not talking about Brad. But the GM will get a pass………again…..

And I think everyone knew they were short up front and you were hoping for Poitras, Lysell or Merkulov to pop and/or add later on. The existing players totally collapsing and the D and goaltending collapsing…hard to predict that.

Sure DeBrusk and Grzelcyk would be up there on this roster points-wise based on their output this season so far, but they would have 2-4 points each and a collective -20 if they were actually a part of this poorly coached, uninspired team.

Swayman kept this game winnable for the first 30 minutes.
It's not his fault the team can't score consistently, if at all.
Dallas was/is simply the better team at the moment.
