Similar to Foo. These college guys get signed all the time. Some of them become something. Most don't. But you want to be in on them. For many years the Flames were not.
Just b/c he signed guys like Czarnik and Foo doesn't mean he wasn't trying to move elsewhere.
I suppose the Flames could just sit on the sidelines while other teams sign players from college, europe and elsewhere.

Sure, he played the lottery on long shots and not surprisingly lost . All we have to show for that is a 3.2M 4th liner that's about to clear waivers. Ryan isn't a bad player, but he is a bad contract.
I wish Trelving sat on the sidelines for those guys. Neither guy filled the need to build a fast, large, tough to play against team.
