So.....you think this roster is superior to the one with Alfredsson and Spezza in it, and you think the Devils had a below average team in terms of talent when they won a Cup.
That is an.....interesting....viewpoint.
I dont think i said that...? If i did i didnt mean it
I thinkk there are pieces on the roster that have gotten worse the longer they been with MacLean and a different coach might be able to get them on the right track, use them in positions to have them succeed and have them reach their potential. The defense doesnt really have anything to do with alfie and Spezza probably would make this defense even worse.
I dont think he deserved his Adams trophy because he coached a bad team and it still was bad. Goaltending just bailed it out.
The superior roster is what it was compared to the shortened season versus last season. When he had Spezza, a healthy Mm, MacA, karlsson anderson, ryan and it still was giving up tons of chances.
