That's been the case every single game this year. He played on the second line last year. Maybe he's an elite player behind the alphas. Nothing wrong with that, but that isn't what the flames need or is worth the price tag.
I'm 40, I want to see the flames win a cup before I die. His contract could be the reason the next decade could be a waste. I have every right, as a fan, to be annoyed...

You're younger than me, but I feel like I've got another 40 or so years yet, so I'm counting on a couple more cups!
####, man, as far as I'm concerned they are still in on the next available Cup.
I'll let this season play out and go from there.
They're a veteran team with potentially good goaltending, elite coaching, and underperforming skill players. Still time to gel, add they right deadline acquisition and go on a run.
GFG!
