Flames missed him when not re signing him when Brent came aboard. He wanted to stay here and seemed to do well. Effortless skating.

Not until Gaudreau did they have a player who had the hands, skating, and confidence with the puck...especially to carry the puck into the opposition zone and establish the zone.

Bonus points for causing Jock Wilson to lose his crap, and childishly call King and Iginla liars for their support of Bertuzzi signing.

Some top notch goals as Flame...another year or two here would've been better than the forward they ended up icing at points that season.



Taking the puck off the skates, then going in on net, a slight skate twitch, at full speed vs the Blackhawks, freezes the goalie and able to deke around.
The snipe of a shot to win the game in Nashville with 20 seconds left.
Weaving around, and through, the sea of sticks in Anaheim to score a great goal.
Hands to go around the Oilers goalie and score from behind the net.
Knocking the puck up off the ice and going around Lydman, picking it up on the other side, and another snipe on Miller.
The great play by Langkow to get him to pass while diving, crashing the net on the backhand for the OT winner in Minnesota.



Shootout vs Oilers



A few days before that Oilers goal (or maybe the next night?), he did this move (starts at 44 seconds) but hit the post vs Luongo at the Dome.
