It's crazy how Holland has basically run his whole 11 year cap era playoff streak Red Wings playbook in Edmonton in just over two years:
-Started by making some safe cheap reclamation projects to get some depth with little cap room
-Thinks having an old former Blackhawks top Dman is beneficial to the team
-Leans on an old goalie as his starter
-Signed a top free agent to only a one year deal
-Brought in guys he's familiar with both in signings and deadline trades
-Let guys slip to unrestricted free agency and just kinda say "we'll see"
-Overpay his own guys
-Overpay/term B-tier free agents
It's unfortunate because I had hopes maybe the guy could redeem himself in the beginning when he was able to get rid of Lucic and stuck with some cheap signings, but man it's not looking good now...
