I do believe the Flames were targeted last season but we don't need that crap carrying over into THIS season, a season which is vital. He pretty much said the ref's were not professional and were targeting us, that can't be GOOD for us.

Just my $.02
Or, given that Hrudey isn't a member of the Flames organization, it could cause them to think twice about perceived biases and we could get the benefit of the doubt.

If Brad Treliving came out and said that, absolutely, the NHL would be pissed off at the Flames. But Kelly Hrudey? He's not even on their payroll.
