Normally I would agree, NHL players should be able to play each side with relative proficiency. But the Flames (maybe the league, I dunno) have a severe lack of right shots, particularly in the top-end category.
At the very least, it opens up shooting holes that don't exist right now. You can't have a full team of left-handers. It's actually kind of weird how many lefties are on the team.
