Sounds like he deserves to be heckled when he comes to town.

The fact that Erixon didn't let the Flames organization know his intentions much sooner really pisses me off and says a lot about the guy. Hope he fails.

I like the the official flames twitter account broke this deal (at least as far as i can tell). Big change as part of the feaster mgmt style when it comes to communicating with the fans. Just like being open with the details on Glencross contract numbers.
Anyway...underwhelming return but the Flames were not in a position of strength in negotiations on this obviously.

Honestly though, if we couldnt sign him, why wait til the final hour to make a deal then? This is a joke. Trading a 1st rounder for nothing more than quantity over quality does not improve anything!

I can't wait to hear Feaster's take on this.
I don't blame Feaster at all either. It had to be Erixon not wanting to come here.

Considering Erixon was going back in the draft in 45 minutes, I would say 2 2nd round picks and a prospect was not too bad of a return.

Waiting 2 years to sign your top prospect doesn't justify getting what you can get last minute!

Oh god, it's like the Hangover Part II. At least we didn't trade him for McCabe?

Winnipeg and Edmonton aren't the only places some NHLers want to pass on

The Erixon's can rot in hockey hell as far as I'm concerned. Thanks for screwing the Flames over at the last minute. May your professional career fail hard.

This is wonderful...maybe it's about time to realize that the Calgary Flames are about to be run into the basement of the NHL for a good while....

Some interesting tidbits to chew on:
1. Tim's dad, Jan Erixon spent his whole NHL career with the Rangers.. no wonder.
2. Don't be down on Horak, he led the Chilliwack Bruins with a 1.22PPG in 64 games, probably playing with Howse.
