I think top of list is Hamilton and Ferland.
How about my first post on this board in about half a year?

Hamilton has the skill and physical tools to be a Pronger like defenseman. What he lacks is the drive to play physical, to make the opposition pay a big price to come into our defensive zone. He also doesn't seem to be as engaged defensively as he does offensively. Does this mean he lacks heart or doesn't hate losing enough? In a way I think it does. Is it a problem? By itself no. But perhaps there are too many players like this on the Flames.

There were some of us that have been claiming Hamilton's compete was an issue long before the trade was consummated. Don't claim revisionist history when the proof is right here for you.
