I'm blaming Chiarelli for this team.
We had maybe the deepest defense in the league with Boychuk, we traded him for picks. Injuries happen, and now we have one of the least deep. Yeah Trotman and Bartkowski suck, but they shouldn't be playing.
Smith sucks this year and Eriksson is just a 2nd/3rd liner. Chiarelli went all in last year with Iginla, expected the cap to go up so it wouldn't be a big deal, and he struck out looking both times. We need a good RW, and it just so happens a former one is leading the league in points. He got too cocky after the Kessel trade, and he's only made ****** moves since.
He's butchered this team and they're just not nearly as talented. He's way too content with this ****** team and it pisses me off. A move NEEDS to be made, and we need an impact player, not a Pandolfo/Meszaros/Rolston player he pulls out of his ass. Not another call-up from Providence. If you're going to trade an impact player for picks, ****ing use them to get another one.
