for
1999 11OA (CGY took Saprykin) + Marc Savard
I think we reacquired the 3rd and selected Craig Anderson
Hlavak had played 0 nhl games at the time of the trade...he ended up playing 436nhl games across 6 seasons for 7 teams (incl. a second stint in NYR). He actually scored 19 and 28 goals in his first two NHL years. CGY acquired him for Jorgen Jonsson , our 227OA pick in 1994. |
Which is why I wondered why the Rangers got rid of him. He was producing pretty good for a first year guy.
I was SOOO pissed after we traded Savard, I wanted the Flames to lose every single game until Dilbert got fired.
