... and that's just the people we know of. Probably could have done more, but I don't know if it was a lack of effort. Lack of competence/scouting/something else? Could be... but if he's sticking it to the organization for that reason, that'd be pretty bad.

Don't forget Savard a few years back as well. I feel the Flames tried very hard over the years to get Iginla his center. Sure they never found the right guy but that just goes to show why top centermen are so hard to find and how important it is to draft them. It's a shame there will be no Cinderella ending but that's life.
