If Detroit or Boston passed on a hometown kid they wouldn't make this big of a fuss about it and there are far fewer NHL players from those areas.
It's simply because they're the Calgary Flames. The same reason TSN analysts tore Feaster to shreds for going off the board and then 5 minutes later they commend other GM's for doing the same thing.
Fact is, the national media hates the Calgary Flames. Anyone that tries to say otherwise is simply being delusional.
