I think there was a reason that Hartley was not in the NHL for 6 years.

Your danger is about as "real" as the RGI is "accurate"

I mean come on, tanking? Let me put it out there, if the Flames ACTUALLY tanked last year and are ACTUALLY tanking this year, then colour me completely PO'd. They can't even TANK properly.
