Klimchuk and Poirier never being able to even crack the lineup was a real blow.
Let's not forget that in his D+1 season, Poirier was looking like a steal, and then he followed that up with a stellar AHL rookie campaign. Poirier's career was derailed by off-ice chaos, and if not for this; if he had the opportunity to develop into the player the Flames scouts thought they were getting, I think Poirier could have been a NHL star.
