That is a pile of nonsense and revisionist history.

Let's be honest. This city had not had playoff hockey for a long time. Making the playoffs and winning a round was important to everyone, from the fans, coaches, young players, management through to Murray Edwards.

I was thinking this summer that it was too bad they burned a year off of Johnny's ELC but presumably that was one of the leverage points in getting him to turn pro. I am rather happy he is playing for us.

It is true the flames are in a bit of a pickle salary cap wise but ultimately that will be because certain players are earning more than they are worth. Not because we iced the best team we could.
