Tkachuk and Bobrovsky are driving this Cinderella run, so to suggest that the Flames made a massive mistake and traded away the core of a championship team to Florida is disingenuous. The most important player (Bob) was already there and Tkachuk forced his way out and to Florida. That dynamic likely never would have been recreated here. Suggesting as such is certainty is navel gazing.

When more than one ex Flames are making the difference, creating the greatest impact to the extent that the TNT commentator is shouting, “are you watching this Calgary?”, you’ve probably ####ed up pretty badly.
