Engelland doesn't get he respect he deserves.
Do people expect him to be a 1/2 d-man? He is not that. He's a bottom pair guy who play physical (which is what you need) but has the hockey IQ to pinch hit on the 2nd pairing.
Engelland was not the problem last season. It was Wideman and his big contract. I agree Engelland has run his course in Calgary and should be gone at the deadline or in the summer, but he played his role well in Calgary.
Beating 2 Canucks at 1 time will go down in Flames lore forever.
