The difference is at least Leighton had multiple shutouts against the Canadiens, meanwhile Manning doesn't justify his spot in the lineup. Admittedly, using a goalie was bad for my analogy. I should have used making the SCF with Lukas Krajicek instead.
Manning (and MacDonald) are known mediocre commodities. While the start of the season is encouraging, I highly question how much of a positive impact Manning has on any chemistry forming.
Eh I'm not sure that would've been a better analogy -- Krajicek was essentially a last resort for that lineup anyway.
I can agree with you on the Manning part for sure. Manning blows. McDonald...it's crazy, but I see value in McDonald. Now don't get me wrong -- I'd trade him right now if I could, but that's really due to his contract's bloated status. Otherwise, he's okay. His vet presence probably means more now than people care to believe.
