So thank you for you time in Calgary David Jones.
Also,I think it is ridiculous that TheScorpions thread got closed. What's the big deal about it? Sure he's probably trolling but theres nothing wrong with an appreciation thread about a former Calgary Flame. Posters like him are what keep this forum interesting. I normally resort Jiri but I really think he should not have locked that thread, plus Jiris' comment before he locked it was a bit much. Especially for a mod.

I don't hate on Jones but I recognize that was an extremely poor trade by Feaster to acquire a defenseman they had to bury in the AHL and pay a 4th line player well over $8 million for 2.5 seasons work. After a quick start this season he was terrible and IMO this trade is more about getting him off the roster than it is the 6th round pick.
