Lots of coverage from Toronto (not surprisingly) -- some interesting (new?) info looking back, including interviews with Gilmour and Leeman:

As a Flames fan, this trade more or less crippled the team for the next several years

91-92 was a tough year for the team, but really they weren't that bad of a team in 93, 94 or 95; they just underperformed in the playoffs.
