- you complain when your team is achieving far, far beyond anyone's expectations
- isn't hockey a team first game?
- Glennie looks like he's more concerned about padding stats for his next contract rather than the Win column (while can't blame a lad for looking out for #1, to do that publicly on this team, at this chosen moment = not cool)
- Flames motto is "nothing given, always earned" - if Curtis was producing, was deserving, he'd get the minutes.
- Do you trust Hartley's deployment of Glencross or the player's interpretation fo what he should be playing?
- he didn't really complain (sorry, not every statement has to be an "aw shucks")
- yes it is, and I don't see where he said anything directly to disprove that (I can see how you could extrapolate comments)
- again extrapolation, he didn't say any of this sort
- True... I agree there
- i think Hartley gave out ice time based upon many things, such as chemistry of players, depth, who is playing well recently etc.

Honestly all I saw from Glencross's comments were that he wants more ice time.... I don't think thats a issue for any GM suiter.
