Someone take control of this mess. No more talking. What's the Jordan quote?

- some want it to happen, some wish it to happen, others make it happen.

Nobody is making anything happen. No one is taking control. Everyone is looking for someone else to do something. Get up! Have some pride and purpose!!

This is awful.
The Flames have one leader on the team and he has apparently been told to tone down his emotion. Says everything about the makeup of the team.
