Cervenka was rumoured to have several, even going back to the previous year I believe. Even though it didn't work, I loved the gamble. I hope the Flames continue to look for the "best players outside the NHL" every year..

The word in local media was that there were 3 or 4 teams kicking tires and offers were made but ROR picked Calgary. Of course the only GM and apparently the smartest man in the room Gillis from Van knew about the wrinkle. Well after the fact, he sure did.
Btw. After it became known that we most likely would have lost the picks I was of the believe that this incident was dismissible offence.
We got lucky and when he didn't get fired I was fine with that.
