^the rules were significantly different when he played so yeah, it was a good point. Head shots, clutching, hooking, cheapshots after clean hits were all part of the game, the dead puck era.

Would like to hear him say something like this: "yeah that kid is damn good. He might even be better than I was in my day. "

He can't because he's still bitter. He definitely has some hard feelings for the Flames still. Don't hold out hopes he'll change.
In person he's an awesome guy, on the mic he'll always be bitter as he feels the Flames estranged him (rightfully or not). I just feel the need to stick up for him when he's had some tough times and he's reasonable 99.9% of the time (should just stay away from the press).
