This pretty much sums it up for me, apart from mind-bottlingly (it's mind-bogglingly damnit!).
Glencross, while usually being able to produce, has always had something going against him in his time with the Flames. At first it was his undisciplined plays in the offensive zone leading to penalties at the worst possible time of the game.
Then he decided to become a finesse player who would only drop pass instead of driving the net. He stopped playing the power forward game and thought he was some super star play maker.
Lately Glencross seems to be back to playing his old game (but a more disciplined version). I'm constantly seeing him on the forecheck and in the slot. He generates so many quality chances due to his ability to battle for space. The guy can hit 3 posts in a game and still end up with 2 points.
