I want people who show up and give 110%
Not guys who collect that pay cheque and rinse repeat.

This team is where it’s at because of Wolf’s amazing play most nights and the youth stepping up. Combine that with a terrible pacific division and alas the Flames have pretended to look good or at least have fooled most of us.

This team wouldn’t cut it in the playoffs.


Open for business.
But we all know they wont do this. We play in a fantasy world, they play in real life. Making decisions like cutting Kuzemko lose, cost money. there's always a bean counter involved in the decisions.
A lot of this is business driven and not so much the on-ice product. If Kuzemko gets waived and someone picks him up....great.
If he wants to back to Russia and have his contract terminated, then he has to ask for it and we all know that the NHLPA and the Player agent would try to talk him out of it.
