			Not a surprise. Thanks for the good memories. They robbed you of one Norris but I'm glad you got another anyway.

			Nothing but great things to say. Did us proud as a flame. Taking the positive, leadership change in the locker room and add a core player or two change and we could look very differently for the better. That is my hope. Don’t squish that dream to fast on me gents lmao

			I honestly can’t believe Tanev forced the team to lose Gio. Shows how great of a season Tanev had. This was the right call. Going to miss Gio but I think he can and will come back to end his career in Calgary
