Those 36 hours, yes I agree. I defend him as a GM, but I absolutely thought he had to be let go as GM as well after those deals. We were a mess. And he showed no patience to develop prospects, something he vowed to do in 2004, mabye because he bombed out and misread the 2005-07 drafts so bad.
But I still respect the fact that he actually made the Flames a team that people actually care about, including Calgarians, because that wasn't the case before him.
