Too bad he's not that good. You would have to guess he's a great guy in the room.

Was character prioritized, or was it simply an attempted reclamation project/change of scenery guy in an area of need?

Who was the last Flame to be arrested while a member of the team?
I honestly can’t think of one, though I’m sure someone has a DUI here or there.

Don’t know if he was arrested versus just sued. Either way it was BS and thrown out.

If he makes the team better, sign him and if not don't. Taking the moral high ground doesn't win you championships.

Virtanen is being sued and wasn't arrested, just sayin.
And yes, Ferland was charged with assault and acquitted by a jury

We did acquire Gilmour.
Fleury did 'illegal activities', but there is a lot to unpack there...
Didn't Chris Simon nearly face charges for on-ice incidents? Albeit before or after CGY. Though didn't he have a lengthy suspension in the leg breaking incident before we acquired him?
And IIRC Chris Butler sold poison milk to school children, but maybe that was just unwarranted slander and vitriol here.

If anyone can sort out Jake it’s probably Sutter.
League minimum reclamation project. Sure.

Makes you wonder about the people who get into the NHL...

But he was a Hall of Fame whipping boy.
