And it isn't as though it is Gio, Cammy, Stajan as the first guys out it is fringe guys like Jackman, Jones, Russell, SOB and Smith along with garbage Butler and a prospect in Hanowski.
If this were a true HF style fanboy vote Hanowski is kept around as the Flames next Cam Neely.
What a real sports commentator and Flames management should use this as is an indication the fans are ready for and want change.

And the most popular flame is Monahan. Does he carry the Flames to the playoffs? or do the Flames burn off a year of his ELC while tanking and going for a high draft pick?
And Stempniak outrageously popular for a journeyman second line player that has been an integral part of the losing tradition???
Hudler joins the team has a team's worst -13 and it has the worst season ever in the History of the Flames..... Too bad he wasn't locked in for another 8 years.???
And we don't want a proven large D-man in SOB or a scrappy guy like Russell who has been in more fights than the left over d-men (outside of Gio) combined and played on the Canadian WC team..... Cundari and Breen???? Really what are their expectations? and why?
Both Russell and SOB are changes.... but because they are established NHLers not good enough for the Flames Fans....
only Rocky Balboa long shots are what is needed?
