Yes. Play was penalized accordingly, its over. Holding a grudge from the rookie tournament where barely anyone from either team will be in the lineup come October doesn't even make sense.
I'm sure the Flames heavyweights will be keeping an eye on the kids come October, but to sit here planning retribution, when they've barely even laced up the skates for training camp? Its as stupid as it is unrealistic.
There is a time and place to stand up to other teams taking liberties against your players...this is not one of them. I'd be shocked if anyone on the Flames is focused at all on this incident after today.
