Like Toronto, Calgary has issues with a lack of chemistry with their top players and a lack of talent behind their first 5 or 6 players...
Calgary should have never let Mike Cammellari go.
he was a Free Agent was he not? I don't think he had an interest in staying.....Quote:

Not sure why this is, but any team that had Iginla and Kipper to build around and some of the people it did just never got off the ground...
In the case of the Leafs...well if they could score, their defense would in theory look better, but guys with great pedigree's and potential just never reach it in Toronto save for maybe Schenn and Kaberle...
Was he? Didn't they trade him....no, he signed in MTL, didn't he?
They could have tried to persuade him. Maybe they did, maybe they didn't.
What I do know was that he was a good fit for the team.
WHY in the hell Sutter resigned Tanguay & Jokinen I'll never know...
He had to sign someone....and they were there, and no other alternatives were available.Quote:

Calgary is in such a world of hurt. Kipper is a good goalie but that team is terrible.
I cant see them making the playoffs.
Well, I cant either on some nights..and yet they have some decent parts and pieces. Calgary is perplexing....Quote:

Schmenke, the sad part is they were in the finals not that long ago, and I can tell you that that team always seems to have more than what it uses. It is truly the Leaf's all over again....lol..
