I have a feeling there is going to be thorough slamming of the Heat every off-season, because our farm team is where Vancouver wishes their farm team was.

Have to add the fact that it is the property of the Calgary Flames, not True North Sports & Entertainment, we are therefore able to choose. If we want to add that veteran to mentor the young guys, we can. If we want them to figure things out on their own, we can do that too. The Canucks don't have such a luxury, and we should always be thankful that we do. Having an affiliate like the Moose is great I'm sure, and much better than not having your own affiliate at all. However, the Flames went from the absolute worst AHL situation (sharing) to the best (owning and operating it all on their own)
