While I agree with you, my concern would be where he plays. He plays his best when he isn't worried about scoring goals, rather just going out and being hard to play against. If the Flames dump the likes of Iginla and Cammalleri yet keep Glencross, were would the coach be tempted to use Glencross? Likely on the 1st line. Yes, that is subjective to what the Flames get in return for the outbound players, but it is still tempting for the coach to play Glencross on the 1st line on a regular basis due to his experience. I think that is setting him up to fail and that is when we see the soft and frustrated Glencross.
