It's why BT said what he said at years end and why I expect there will be a blockbuster/massive move or more this summer. There is an entire culture change needed and it begins and ends with those who take the ice each day.

Agreed. Particularly when this team couldn't beat the worst in the league during that stretch in January (or maybe it was February). From the cheap seats, the only 4 top notch players on the Flames who showed me they care were Monahan, Tkachuk, Smith and Giordano. Anyone not on that list can be shipped out in some sort of blockbuster shake up as far as i am concerned.
