It's not going to help the Flames image with FA signings when the only notable one in recent history tells everyone he got treated like a bag of crap when he was struggling. He knows he sucked, we know he sucked. He is gone now that is good enough for me.
I dont want to give Edmonton any fuel to actually get up for this game either. the teams dont seem to hate each other as much as the fans do. Let Edmonton sleep walk through this one. I want the points. I dont want this to be another Doughty situation where what should be an easy game ends up being their Stanley Cup every time because we had to create drama.

If a player won't sign in a city because the fans may boo him after he leaves town then you don't want him. He's fragile and can't handle the heat of a Canadian city. He will make minimal or even negative contributions towards a winning atmosphere.
