One man can't change the team. It's a whole team effort that changes the team to a whole new level. The Flames have arguably the best goalie and the one of the best power forward still in the NHL right here, right now. But the team just sucks more than half the time because players don't show up for part or even most of the games for more than half of the games that are played. So, what'd you expect?
If Iron Mike was let to coach instead of being fired for Brent, we wouldn't be seeing Tanguay's lazy ass floating around the ice still. There was a reason why Tanguay left the first time around.

Agree 100%. Tanguay has to be the worst cancer of all. Keenan, for all his warts, actually turned Tanguay into a great team player - an excellent checker & PKer who could produce offence at the same time - exactly the kind of guy you need to win. Tanguay's reaction - trade me right f***ing now. He wanted to score points and be an offensive player. Get him the hell out of here (or bring Keenan back to torment him) - this is the last guy I want "tutoring" young players...
