4. He is not recognized in the same vein as McDonald and Iginla when it comes to the Flames. Ask the casual, out of market fan who they think of when they hear Calgary Flames...I have no statistical evidence, but I expect you'll hear 2 names, and they don't contain Theoren or Fleury.
Sure. Your story, you can make up anything you want. Exactly what did Jarome lead the Flames to? It doesn't matter because he was a great player.
