Where as Theo has out the Flames down on at least a couple occasions and was even given an opportunity to make it right. But he still ran his mouth, I am confident that if he had been gracious in the last opportunity he was given that his number would be in the rafters.

Theo also had another interview after his inital dissapointment (erased first statement) saying thank you to the Flames for a shot and he is at peace to retire now. The man is a competitor, I wouldn't expect any less of him to voice his dissapointment. He also put on a good show for the fans (especially his last penalty shot). And where has Theo outted the Flames at least a couple of times ? Over sensitive dudes on here, it's not Big Brother, it's real life and hockey - Don Cherry must make some of you turn in your sleep at night. Keep the facts on the ice, not off of it.
