Absolutely not. It's a possibility that's all and it's important that the organization looks positive to these kids because agents will always be in their ear looking for the best financial opportunity. That's probably what cost the Flames Erixon as at the time everyone knew it wasn't the place to be for young players. Now it's important that the Flames try to improve their image to the hockey world. Being a Western Canadian punchline isn't exatly enticing to American born players that may have options to play for an American team.
