He also went back to his natural position and yet we continue to hear things like his line-mates are the problem. At this point it is 100% on the player. No more excuses - he just flat out doesn't have it as a Calgary Flame.
Frankly I'm not pleased that he wears a letter. He's shown nothing as a Flame and why exactly is that being rewarded? He's expected to put up points given the contract, but at this point I'm willing to accept a player who doesn't add negative value to the team. He's lifeless out there and the coach wouldn't even put him out with the goalie pulled last night. I'm guessing he's not going to return to his Florida numbers but not being a liability would be a step in the right direction. -11 ten games into the season is pathetic.

Couldnt agree more, so many of these "solutions" are foolish. How many people suggested the Flames hire Brunette as the coach or trade for his former linemates like Duclair? that is absurd. And yes the fact he wears a letter is embarrassing.
