One thing that all coaches can agree on is that Hamilton is too defensively inept and soft that he is not put on the PK on anything other than dire emergency basis. Maybe it is unfair to single out Hamilton as a tire fire seeing how the teams top players are getting their collective butt kicked down the "playoff run".

Gaudreau -11
Backlund -10
Gio -10
Hamilton -9
Monahan -9
Bennett -9

This is the biggest playoff fail since Bouwmeester decide not to play down the stretch. At least on that team Bouwmeester stood out as a fail.

This team's biggest need is a heart transplant.

Since Backlund signed his contract extension he has become un-tradeable. -10 1 goal 1 pt in the last 10 most important games of the year. Some people suggest he be given an "A" !!!

How much would the Flames have to retain of his salary to move him?

The biggest mystery is not that Trevling is ready to dump his mistakes to start a rebuild ( hopefully focused more on players with some character) it is that the ownership is considering giving him a chance.
