I think we would have lost more players early (portal and/or NHL), we wouldn't have landed the CHL talent we have now and we would have kept playing the outdated style Berry insisted on playing. This year's team would definitely finish in the lower half of the league if the coaching change hadn't been made. The 8th or 9th place finish is the worst case scenario, but even if that didn't happen, it would be one of our worst seasons in decades. Thank God Chaves made the move he did.
