Great start for Hirose. He looks like a keeper.
I don't think he is any better than Nyquist was when he graduated and Nyquist toiled in the minors for 3+ seasons as Holland kept adding redundant veteran depth that weren't as good as Nyquist (and Tatar and perhaps even some of the other younger guys like Mursak) preventing them form having a chance at playing on the team.
The cap space used on unnecessary redundant veteran depth which was preventing better players from playing could have been used on acquiring an impact player and kept them as perennial Cup contenders that they have been until then and precipitated the decline to finally tanking this year (although they are much better team in tank mode than when they are trying to win, I think this speaks volumes about the team's management).
