Pronger wasn't our best player, that title goes to Giroux. Pronger only played half a season last year, came back this year and was even slower and then totally crashed. People keep talking about him as if he's 25 years old. Also, keeping him away from the team allowed the other, more quiet guys to step up and become leaders.
