You can't measure what the Hawks lost by saying they can easily replace the 16 goals and 27 assists in what was a down year for the winger. It goes beyond finding ways to compensate for the absence of the team's active leader in power-play goals (65) and short-handed goals (16) who leaves with 38 game-winners — three more than Patrick Kane. An organization that has relied on class and character as much as speed and skill to rebuild itself in the Joel Quenneville Era faces a void requiring more than just a sniper on a top line. It faces the loss of a quiet example of professionalism and leadership often overlooked on a team full of bigger stars — but not unappreciated.
