Yeah, probably not. There are still a lot of fans who think Theo Fleury is a great too.

Which is probably why Cammalleri will find himself on another team as soon as he can a) put up some points to make teams take notice of him, or b) a team is desperate to add an offensive player with some obvious warts.

Maybe we shouldn't pretend to know what goes on inside the locker room and just take this comment at face value.

Maybe we should start listening to people in the know rather than dumping all over them because their story doesn't fit the narrative. The crap and abuse Warrener took on this board for his comments was pretty sad. That was a guy that a recognized leader and warrior everywhere he played, and the fans here crapped on him for calling a spade-a-spade about something he knew quite well.
When you say take it at face value, what do you mean? The coach just said no more of those division shenanigans, from the owners down, which clearly means they existed up to a point last season, meaning someone was shipped out that was at the root. It also clearly means that an owner was in the mix of these shenanigans. The only player an owner had a major relationship with was Murray Edwards with Jarome Iginla. There has obviously been a major come-to-Jesus moment within in the hockey club and it included the whole organization, owners and management, agreeing to something significant. The most significant change in the past five years just took place with the departure of the face of the franchise. Not surprisingly there are comments coming out that team has not been this together in years. Is that face value enough for you?
