Johnny meant so much to so many. He was to the newest generation of fans what Lanny, Fleury and Iggy were to many of us. I hope the Flames honor him properly (jersey retirement at a minimum).
RIP and thanks for the memories Johnny. You brought excitement back to the Flames and this city. I hope the wordsmiths of CP can do a better job than me writing tributes as I'm gutted and I appreciate reading the comments. #
