None of them were amazing in their time with the Flames in terms of putting up points. Though I really can't stand Ference now, especially after what he did to Stempniak, he was simply a warrior for the Flames in his time here (led the Flames in hits I believe in one playoff drive). I think that as a player moves on from the Flames, what he does shouldn't impact what he did do here, with the exception of any negativity he may direct at the Flames (which Ference didn't do). Real heart and soul player.
Berezan was such an important leader too. He was here longer, and is one of the unsung heroes I think. Continues to be a Flame. He gets the nod over Ference for that reason.
Tough choice though! Cassels wasn't here long enough. Chiasson was great, but also wasn't here long enough. Jokinen I actually liked, but he was simply too much of a polarizing figure for the Flames at times - though no fault of his own!
