Pretty much everything to do with Trevor Kidd. They drafted him instead of Brodeur then traded Vernon because they thought Kidd was starter material. Then in the 1995 playoffs Kidd shows he is the least clutch goalie in Flames history getting outplayed by both Irbe and Flarrety but for some reason plays in all 7 games of the series. It is still hard to believe the Flames scored 35 (!!!) goals in a playoff series and lost. Finally the next season they put Tabaracci in net after Kidd lays an even bigger egg in Chicago but by then it is far too late.
