Drury pouted the whole time he was in Calgary. I can't remember who they traded for that ##### but he wasn't worth a bag of dog ####.

But I think you have to live with that; it's part of the package.

The Flames had player's coaches and a country club and a lot of erratic play for years. Sutter has seemingly turned that around.

For one I'm willing to ride out a star player taking time to adjust to a guy with a long history of winning - and that's not to hammer on Huberdeau who isn't actually complaining at all.

The guy wins. Winning is fun.

Add in the fact that I sure get the feeling that Calgary isn't the biggest destination for the top minds in coaching and you have me happy the guy was extended and not going anywhere.

If his shelf life expires I'd even consider moving the core and getting a reset on the shelf!
Lol, ya dreamin'!

Ripped from the internet (not memory lol):

The Colorado Avalanche traded forwards Chris Drury and Stephane Yelle to the Calgary Flames for defenseman Derek Morris and forwards Dean McAmmond and Jeff Shantz.

Yelle was a great acquisition over time. Really helped turnaround the culture of the team.

I remember being fully on the "Morris for Norris" train. He was a good player at a young age, but just never got over the hump. I think the Flames traded him at the right time.

The problem was the hump was Derek's big fat ass
