I don’t want to trade Johnny because I don’t think he’s a good player. I just don’t want the Flames to lie to themselves. Something isn’t working and he’s been a no-show in every playoff series we’ve had. He’s had multiple opportunities to prove he’s learned something and he hasn’t.
It’s a waste of everyone’s time to keep trying to jam a square peg into a round hole. Something isn’t working here and he’s at the centre of it.
Great player. I love watching him. But it’s all about the playoffs and he just doesn’t perform on that stage. We don’t have enough talent to compensate for that.
