And then 6 days later, they give him away for absolutely nothing. This isn't the 80s where you need an army of goons, but a tough, gritty guy with hands is always important to have on any competitive team. And now, they don't have one. Let's hope Podkolzin doesn't get sent down or this team is going to get beat up badly in the Pacific Division. We don't need a Don Cherry-style team, but even Tampa has guys like Victor Hedman, who can play tough, physical hockey. This franchise has been guilty of having no pushback in the past, and this lineup continues that tradition.
