Tough pill to swallow however at least we got some picks in return. Tim obviously didnt want to be a Flame for whatever reason. So good riddance.
Just because I want to lets look at all Darryls 1st rounders. I like Darryl but this is why he is unemployed.
2003 - Dion Phaneuf - Great start, then Egomaniac,traded for nothing and now looks like he may improve.
2004 - Kris Chucko- Bust
2005- Matt Pelech- Make or break it year, may have also passed last year
2006- Leland Irving- May be a backup this year, starting to show promise
2007- Michael Backlund- Showing signs he can be a player in this league
2008- Greg Nemisz - May be a in the big leagues some day
2009- Tim Erixon- Traded to NYR For picks and prospect, looks like a gem
2010- See Olli Jokinen lol
