(cough cough Kipper cough cough) Sutter isn't going anywhere. Dion was/is over-rated and then some, check TSN or any other hockey site, they all agree. Just because you rocked your first two years into the league doesn't make you someone comparable to Scott Stevens. The Flames spent a good part of the season listening to Dion bitch and whine, that takes it's toll. Now that he's gone, the team is better for it. Dion is supposed to be one of the best D men in the game yet, without him, a couple games back we set a franchise record for fewest shots allowed... all without Mr Magic himself. :) Myself, I'm happy the jackass is gone.

Look at the players that leave calgary and find greener pastures elsewhere. We screwed up. We are not a contender and the way we draft we will be pretenders for a while to come. Sutter will be on his way out by summer. Flames will not make the playoffs and no i am not a bandwagon fan, iam just calling it the way it is. Hopefully iam wrong.

I didn't realize that even some Flames fans actually hated the guy too... Anyway, glad to see him leave the NW division. Now I don't have to hear about him as much :) Wow… I didn’t realize that even some Flames fans actually hated the guy too… Anyway, glad to see him leave the NW division.
