Not that the Flames are the gold standard of hockey these days, but compare the way they handled the Tkachuk injury to the Oilers standard operating procedures. The Flames desperately missed Tkachuk's services but still chose to put his long-term personal health ahead of that and sat him out. It sucked as a fan but I'm proud of how they handled that.
