I am getting a little sick of hearing about the Flames focusing in on "character" to build their team. So far "character" hasn't amounted to a hill of beans. The "character" guys they've invested in have been massive flops. I wouldn't mind a guy that is a little nuts, so long as he scores 30 goals, is a plus player, and helps the team get deep in the playoffs.
I think Calgary is on a ton of players no trade list. Would not surprise me to see Hoffman have the Flames on it either.

With the Arena debacle that happened last fall. Uncertainty floating that the team will be around. The coaching carousel and the fact they really haven't done much in the playoffs for a long time. I can see a lot of the players that Tre would like to target, have us on the no trade list.
