Forever a Flame is an embarrassment Ken King. Never should have went down that road.

“I am truly honoured to receive this recognition as a member of the Flames family and to have my name and number recognized by one of the finest hockey teams I have ever had the pleasure to compete on,” said MacInnis. “The Forever A Flame program serves a multitude of purposes but most importantly for me as a former player, it permits a bright young player in the future to wear my number and the tradition that accompanies it.”
The Flames have established a tradition that permits Flames of the future, with an opportunity to proudly wear the numbers of some of the Flames all-time greats.

That's a MacInnis quote (no doubt with a little help from the organization), but I'm not sure the spirit of a 'bright young player' is embodied in Bollig.
I dislike Forever A Flame
