i think eakins is responsible to large degree, the team has regressed under his defensive structure allowing a league high 3.8goals/game over 1ga/g higher than last year while maintaining the same offensive output.
Well if upper management doesn't give you any defensive minded players and trades away one of you best d to a provincial rival then you can only do so much. They have too many players in their top 6 that have the same skill set. Someone needs to be sold for role players and defense.
