This is why the flames moved the goal posts on the parameters of the trade imo. I am sure they have the majority of the trade in place since the third week of the season and have been sitting in it. Everyone knows its an anchor and being in direct competition hurts LA. If the flames had 10 less points i bet Richards is a flame.
