troutman's pre-season press conference:
You know what? You guys don't give us much of a chance. But to be quite honest I like our team. We're one of the top teams in the league. You know what? Calgary is a great place to play. It's a good hockey team. And it's Canada.
As for all the trade rumors, the only thing that gets written is basically gossip. There have been no facts. Where it comes from, I don't know. It shows you that the reporters who don't know things, make things up.
As for being both GM and coach - You know what? I'm doing exactly what I wanted myself to do -- it's dead on. Quite honest, everyone's on the same page. That's because of my relationship with myself -- there's not a difference in philosophy.
