It gets portrayed by some that the organizations'a hands were tied which I don't think is quite right.
Will be interesting if Jagr is healthy in a few days.

Great point that needs to be made. As the Flames saw with Porier, Wotherspoon and Shinkaruk a few weeks ago, every team has players like these and little interest in claiming someone else's fodder.
Jankowski is ready. After 5 years the time is now for a 23 year old prospect to step up to the bell. No more excuses from management about a numbers game etc. If Freddie Hamilton, Glass or Stajan are in the way of him playing on this team you cut them 10 times out of 10 and call up the next healthy scratch from Stockton should any of them get claimed.
