>he was simply nowhere near as good as Sammy Hagar.
you're missing the point entirely. It was the chemistry between DLR and EVH which fueled the rocket that made Van Halen. The oil/water mix of EVH/DLR was lightening-in-the-bottle type stuff that changed rock music. Without DLR, there would be no Van Halen- he was the driving force early on. Both of them imploded on their own ego and it was a shame.
Once SlapHappySammy joined the angst was gone and it was more about aliens in love, being buddy/buddy doing the conga line around the stage. The music, while still decent at times, suffered in part do to Sammy's terrible lyrics.
