We'll keep those "magic beans" Kent, they're blossoming quite nicely actually.
And the crying about Calgary getting a "stigma"? Haven't had trouble signing prospects since then. In fact we're attracting guys (see Knight).
Terrible editorial.

We're attracting prospects because we're perceived as being terrible, so there are opportunities. We didn't change our philosophy because we had an epiphany of how to build a winner. We're in this position because Feaster has built a bad hockey team.
As for the stigma, yeah it had been an ongoing criticism of the Flames but still this was just a red herring that Tom used as he wanted to be with the Rangers. Anyways all in all it looks good on Tom. I hope he becomes a tweener for years to come.
