I'm sure he thought that with Cammy gone, he could fill the void and score a lot of goals in his contract year ... but it really all went south for him this season, to be honest. Gaudreau came in and locked down a LW spot ahead of him, other wingers went through good stretches too and now Lance Bouma stole his minutes. Surely not the contract year he was hoping for.

With Sven and Poirier still in the pipeline, I think the Flames can move on. Hopefully a change of scenery will help Glencross, I've always liked him and I was beyond excited when he re-signed 4 years ago. I think he'd be a great fit with some Eastern teams.
