Brossoit was well thought of too.
You sure went through a lot of trouble there to dig through old quotes trying to prove that Flames fans are hypocrites, but there really isn't any quote there that suggests that Flames fans though Horak was hot stuff before the trade and then sucked after. Most Flames fans thought Horak was an NHL depth guy and that's about it. Again as another poster noted, these two were the 11th and 17th ranked prospects by this board, and this was before the season started. Both probably dropped after the season started as other prospects passed them. So your suggestion that Flames fans are hypocrites is not right, well, at least not in this case ;p.
