If Kipper doesn't come to the Flames they would have probably missed the playoffs for the eighth year in a row heading into the lockout. He was the only thing keeping this team from missing the playoffs after the lockout. Without him, I think it is save to say that the Flames could have missed the playoffs 16 years in a row.

I think it's safe to say we could play the "'what if" game all day with the Flames, or any other team for that matter.
