No....he didn't make the cut in training camp. Then he got waived. Not every player works well in a system. Who's to say AV wouldn't have stuck him with bottom line minutes like he did with coho? Look where he is today. Our top 6 was locked. Kinda still is.
Again, terrible trade, but judging from our system, Grabner wouldn't have made it here.
How is our top 6 locked? Our second line hasn't had an identity in years, and none of us know what it's gonna look like going into the playoffs (heck, maybe even next game).
IMO he was always better than Raymond, and definitely stood out more when Grabner and Raymond were on Kesler's wing.
But I guess that's what we get when the coach/management only like grinders and two-way forwards.
