Tre had all of these players and now has none of them.
(And I realize there are circumstances with each)
Just sayin...

- Dougie was part of a trade to address upgrading our offence. I'd much rather have Lindholm at this point.
- We did the best we could with Fox with what was presented to us. The Loop-hole shouldn't exist but it does and nothing the Flames can do about that.
- We can go on and on about Bennett but we couldn't give him a situation where he could excel and allow him to play his style at C in a top 6 role.
- Markstrom going forward is a much better position to be in than Smith/Talbot. He was a bit off this season I believe from injury mid-season.
On to next year! Let's hope for a bit of a shake-up in the roster.
