Wasn't this guy one of the losers taunting fans at the WJHC?

Seems like the exact kind of guy organizations should want nothing to do with.

Cutter is a Pens fan, wonder if that had any reason he doesn’t wanna play for the Flyers.

I wouldn't want that crap as my teammate.
I would be happy to take Fox.

So not just the Flames. You have to wonder what soured him so much on the franchise.

As far as I know, Fox and his agent didn't just cut off all communication with the Flames. Gauthier's camp appear to be handling this like Grade A jerks.

That would be one of the dumbest reasons to do this.

Iggy grew up cheering for the Oilers and is the greatest Flames ever.

It's nice that they seemed to have been able to keep it under wraps. Any time something like this happens to the Flames, it gets insta-leaked.

...this stuff matters.

(also, Philly doesn't seem like a "pretty" city...so I definitely can't blame the kid)
Yet we can blame players for not wanting to be in Calgary?

This is the opposite. This is equivalent of a Flames fan being drafted by the Oilers.

From Keith Jones comments, he seems pretty happy to have seen the back of this guy. Doesn't sound like they shopped him around too much. They were afraid of degrading value if rumour got out.

This apparently is the attitude of the new age professional that must be catered to.
All cocky no success

Many people taunt fans. Heck look at that loser coach of the Eagles yelling at Chief fans after a regular season win.

Trading a blue chip defense prospect for a blue chip wing prospect seems weird given the relative value of those positions but I haven't really been keeping up on Drysdale so for all I know he's Juolevi I guess.

Fox made it clear quite early he was not signing with the Flames.

Drysdale is excellent, but he’s got a history of injuries, plus- I wonder what his true ceiling is. Gauthier is going to be a top-line star, no doubt about it. Kid is a stud.
