Plus, AV wants to see the newcomers in action to get a feel how to build lines with different players.
Even if he decided they weren't good enough, injuries happen, and you don't want to go blind into key games without seeing them on the ice for a few games.
I don't get the angst, once again, a perfectly logical move, add two veterans for depth, size and experience, then play them a few games to see them in action and let them get comfortable with their new teammates, becomes a focal point of criticism.
"Wait and see" before jumping to conclusions is verboten around here.
We've had Fletcher for a whole year, he hasn't traded a prospect yet, he only gave up real draft picks in one deal and recouped the 2nd rd pick in the draft. Frost and Farabee aren't exactly buried, Bunnaman got a long stretch to show he's a NHL caliber player, NAK is now a starter. Take a deep breath and relax.
