Bylsma and Sleepy would never have given Gaudreau that chance unless they had injuries. It was either forfeit or use AHL guys. You gotta give the guys in the AHL a shot, and it paid off last year.We had a significant amount of forwards missing time last year which led to a player in Jankowski getting an extended look. Hextall made a deal to acquire a player to knock him out and Sullivan immediately scratched him for Gaudreau once he showed himself to be a better talent.
Sleepy and Bylsma stood by Jank for 2+ months where he scored 1 point (empty net goal). They are doing the same dumbass stuff this season. There are defensive players and there are AHL players good at defense playing in the NHL. Sleepy was given a free pass because he “needed time to evaluate.” It is alarming it took as long as it did for him to see a guy like Jank wasn’t an everyday player.
Here we are doing the same crap this season with other turds that will be part-time players next year if they are lucky.
I can’t wait to see what players accept Bylsma’s rose to come play with us next season that have no business playing in the league.
