That could very well be it. One of the games I've seen live was against LA, so I expected that then. 97% of the Flames games I've seen are on TV.

And that's likely it, as I've always thought his game really was different. FTR, I wouldn't put the C on Perry or Marchand. I'm actually pretty surprised to hear I'd be in the minority!
