“I was fortunate enough to play with two great organizations and this night is very, very special for a number of reasons,”MacInnis said.“The Calgary Flames gave me a chance to play in the National Hockey League. They showed patience in a young defenceman for years that needed to develop and needed work.”
“It was the people of Calgary who welcomed me to the NHL, who made me proud to be a Flame,”
Yeah he hates all of us, the city ... the jersey, the team, the country ...

That was on his Forever a Flame night, right? Did he not say that he did not want his number retired as a Flame? I don't ever hear him talking about being a Flame other than that night. I am not saying he hates the Flames or Calgary. I am just questioning whether he belongs on the team's Mount Rushmore and I do not believe so, but I seem to be in the minority. Loved the player, loved the slap shot, seems like a nice guy as well.
Not everyone on here is negative for the sake of being negative Bingo, LOL.
