Yeah, well I didn't say all season. This is assuming that Glencross is out short term (a few games). Someone getting hurt opens a spot for a call-up, we don't HAVE to use someone already on the roster. Maybe seeing a kid take his place for a few games will light a fire under Raymond. Or not, and he is over-taken by a young guy. Either way the Flames win, and I couldn't really care less about Raymond's hurt feelings. He wouldn't be in the press-box if Hartley felt he was trying his darndest. It's not about points as much as effort, hence why guys like Bollig and Byron play and Raymond doesn't. Effort is not a mistake, it's a choice.
