I hope the team takes a more intelligent approach than just rewarding/punishing guys for things out of their control.
Yes, Fleury played on a stacked team in his half a season during his rookie season however the Flames were loosing big players left and right the year after the cup win and every year after that. The Flames were not the stacked powerhouse as much anymore after that cup win. He also spent his fair share of his Flames career playing with a crap teams during the better part of the 90's.
