Yeah, one of my favourite non-Flame players back in the day.  The guy was fierce and could produce.
Wasn't is rumoured that the Flames turned down a Gilmour-Verbeek deal in favour of the Leeman offer, or am I thinking of a different trade rumour?  I distinctly remember hearing that Verbeek could have been a Flame at one point though.
