it is a major black mark on the Flames organization that they have not raised Fleury's number to the rafters by now.
They have had several opportunities to do so.
What they are saying to all fans and players is that it doesn't matter how great you were for our organization, how much the fans jumped out the seats to watch you. How much of a leader you were on the ice.
How many Fleury jersey's and tickets were bought were bought because of you.
You didn't play by our rules by not "always" kissing our ass after you retired. So we hold all the cards and you will never by honored and we really do not care how our fans feel about it.
In times like this I remind myself I cheer for the Flames for the city their logo, colors, and the players. Not the politics the Owners and especially Ken King seem to bring to the forefront.
