Last summer, Troy Brouwer was the Calgary Flames prized free agent acquisition.
Last season, Troy Brouwer was by far the team's biggest disappointment, arguably their worst forward and ultimately hurt the team more than any benefit he provided.
Initially seen as a potential fit on the top line, he slid down the depth chart throughout the season and after spending way too long on the third line, he finally was dropped down to the fourth line.
While there is the potential of a bounce back, we have to keep in mind that Brouwer was never as good as he was made out to be when the team signed him, with his inflated shooting percentage, lots of ice time, good teammates, poor possession stats.
