In the 15GP perior to the deadline with Cammy in the lineup(Injured from Jan 13 until Jan 31) the Flames were shut out 7 times! In fact they only scored more than 2 goals on 3 occasions! And only three of those games were one goal games. Their record was 4-11-0 during that stretch.
The team really came together only after the deadline, and that's when Cammy heated up! What I am trying to say is that Cammy was simply too great of a risk for a GM on the trade deadline for a late first.

It's not about whether you win or lose (especially for a rebuilding team), its how you play the game.
And I liked the way they lost games this year, more than I liked how they won games the 2 or 3 seasons before that.
They were losing the right way, and I think Cammalleri had a role to play in that.
Just my take.
