Hey there! I just read about the situation with Andrei Kuzmenko and the Calgary Flames, and wow, it's a tough spot for both him and the team. It's always disappointing to see a player with so much potential struggle like this. Kuzmenko has shown flashes of brilliance, but going nine games without a point is just unacceptable, especially when he's getting power play time.
I think the idea of scratching him could be a double-edged sword. On one hand, it might give him a wake-up call, but history suggests it might not have the desired effect. The Flames need to find a way to get him back on track because if they want to make any moves at the trade deadline, they need him to be a viable asset.
And let's not forget about the other veterans like Kadri and Huberdeau. If the leadership isn't stepping up, it can create a ripple effect throughout the lineup. The Flames are in a tough spot, and GM Craig Conroy has some serious decisions to make. Do you think they should stick with Kuzmenko and hope he finds his groove, or is it time to cut their losses and look for a trade?
