What did we acquire him for? The playoffs. If he is not we he was cracked up to be in the playoffs, criticize away.I keep seeing "give it time", "it's only been 'x' weeks"... so what's the threshold by which we can start criticizing his play? When our season is over?
Usually you like to see a glimmer of something out there, of potential impact. Even during a bad game, a really good defensive play or a nice pass or even a shot which forces a goalie into a difficult save. I've seen nothing. No glimmers. A complete passenger out there. Dom Moore honestly was more noticeable.
Not a fan of this trade. Hope he proves me wrong.
But to pass judgement on a guy after a handful of games, when the first 4 were on the road, the first of which the day after the trade, and you haven't even had a chance to pack your **** up, or move can be a bit unnerving, especially when you have spent like 15 years in 1 organization. There is a reason why they say moving is the 2nd biggest stressor behind a death to someone you care about. The guy is human not a robot. Give him a chance to get settled in Toronto and learn the new system and we will know what we have got.
