Guy went from playing top pairing minutes with Nik Lidstrom, and looking half decent to signing a PTO with Winnipeg.

Shows how good Nik Lidstrom was and how much better he made his d-partner.

After Anders Eriksson, he's the worst defenceman to ever play for the Flames.

Some guy on here really hates Cale Hulse. He's gotta be one of them.

He wasn't even the worst defenseman on the roster when he was here.

And during the first season, he was top 4

Nice try though

Bob McKenzie also claim that Ian White was the best player in the trade at one point.

I think this goes to show how great Nick Lidstrom is. He made White look like a beast.

I think you guys forget how bad White was at the start of the 10/11 season. Babchuk was a huge upgrade over him.

He was at the time of the trade, and for the rest of that season too. His game really dropped off the next year.

That's the problem with basing it on on a small sample size. That was White's only good season at the time.
