in no particular order:
1. Anders Erikkson / Zyuzin - different dmen, same suck.

2. Matt Stajan - i hated that phaneuf trade, but stajan was supposed to be more than what he ever became as a flame. Nice guy & good on the flames for even extending him for a variety of reasons, but can't wait to see him off the books

3. Jay Bouwmeester - Grossly overrated when he got here. Offensive instincts are lacking, lacks any kind of intensity. He is a defensive defenseman who can skate. I give him credit for realizing this, and instead of chasing the money, finding a good spot in St. Loius at a price tag that allows him to play his game.

4. Jokinen - i have one good memory of jokinen. It's his first game as a flame in Philly after the trade where him and iginla had multiple points/goals. Everything after that is crap. hated his game, hated that he was brought back, good riddance.

5. Kotalik - ugh. the player, the transactions he was involved in, all make me sick to my stomach.

6. Tanguay - ya, good player, especially early on. I hated his inability to recognize a shooting opportunity. I hated how he pouted when huselius took over the role as the playmaker on the flames top line.

i probably should add the garbage we got in many trade returns for our primetime 80s teams, but was too young and those wounds have healed. As for the 90s, i moved from calgary for much of the time, and the team was such garbage i had better thigns to do as a teen.
