I don't begrudge the media for asking the question - it's their job - and I like that Dougie answered by saying he is focused on the game.
Freddie seemed like a good teammate. He used his position as a Flame to help brighten days of Calgarians in tough positions. Good for him. I wish him the best. I hope he's able to establish a regular spot in the lineup and I hope he is able to continue his efforts in the community in a new market.

Same.
It sucks that his brother got waived but thats part of the game, but hes well within his rights to not talk about it and stick to the game.
Its interesting, we look at the E=NG thread and you've got Oilers fans threatening Maroon and thats garbage, but I think Flames fans are largely sad that Freddy had to go but there just wasnt any room for him here. He wasnt winning a spot.
So it sucks to see him go, but thats part of the game, but its a better opportunity for him and maybe he'll get to play.
