I remember thinking Forsling looked pretty good in Chicago, in a somewhat limited role on a bad team, at least when I caught glimpses of him. It's not like he was bad there. I dunno why they parted ways with him, but they let many good young players go (Teräväinen, et cetera) after the mini-dynasty years, so perhaps just misguided management.

It's also not like Forsling has been a clear-cut #1D two-way horse in Florida the last two years, though he's been logging the most TOI in the playoffs, but Montour's taking most of the offensive assignments.

Wasn’t a lot of it just a matter of cap space? I remember when the Canes traded for Teravainen, everyone understood Chicago was giving away a good player for meh picks, but they didn’t have a way to hold on to him and were just trying to get whatever they could in return.

He's been given a chance to be the man with easy match ups and pp time on every team he has ever been on lol

He's unhealthy/injured a lot because his mind doesn't process the game fast enough and he gets smoked with hits. Like badly lol

He's never been on a good team before just like Forsling hadnt

I had hope for Gustav Lindstrom – last year he had a ridiculously good +/- for a bad Ducks team. But not sure we'll even be resigning him

What exactly are you carrying on about in the second paragraph?
