You don't just do this after all that has happened.

They didn't do it to Ferland and they won't do it to Poirier.
I really hope the Flames ice the best line-up they can. If Poirier isn't one of the 13 best forwards, then he should be in the AHL. It's a tough business and unfortunately Poirier's battle with addiction is irrelevant.

Ferland made the Flames because he was a good player, not because he overcame his demons.
