Most of all, thanks for taking Juolevi over Tkachuk.

Flames legend.

Flames should make a video tribute.

I don't mind Boudreau on the Canucks. Mediocre coach in my mind - not a single year under his coaching would I say a team has over-achieved. I am sure this change will get them pointed in the right direction again, but I don't mind this hire for a rival.

No, he was with Boston when Gaudreau got drafted IIRC.

What Flames players are most famously or infamously connected with Weisbrod?

2013 Ducks? 2014 Ducks? 2017 Wild? 2018 Wild?

He also got a lot out of some shady bluelines in Washington, and he had a really young blueline in 2015 too.

I think Boudreau squeezes a lot out of his teams, and then game 7s role around and his teams run out of gas.

Jankowski and Sieloff are the two most associated with Weisbrod.

He'll be good for us too in any playoff series where Flames meet Canucks.

Why is this all being leaked through the media? Why not issue a press release? A good sign that the organization will continue to be dysfunctional.

I said it before, hire the Sedins. Hire one as coach and one as GM....but dont tell anyone which is which and then have them periodically switch places.
