I would say Alex Tanguay, to bad he is not as good as he was on the Colorado Avalanche when they won the cup.
considering im not a flames fan i hope he does not do good for the sake of if the leafs play the flames they will not have to deal with him, but i remember those days when they had roy/forsberg/sakic/tanguay/hejduk, etc, they were probably the best overall team in the nhl, they should have won the cup every year
i also remember how i thought tanguay would become a superstar in this league but that never really panned out

THey dont suck, they have the best goalie in the league, top 3 in defence, and they just got Tanguay (who is capable of 80+) points for all but 1.7mil. Jokinen is pretty good if you stop trying to force him to feed Iggy, and They have some great young talent coming through the system now as well (Backlund is going to be unreal, future franchise. And Bryan Cameron (not well known YET, but he just scored 53 goals in the OHL this year, he won the title, yes, Bryan Cameron scored more goals than both Seguin and Hall. So there haters..
thing about the flames is all these big named defenceman they have are not really playing up to their skill level and kiprusoff's stats have been dropping ever since they made it to the nhl finals, i do not consider him one of the best in the league anymore, still an amazing goalie but he has to reprove his worth for me
i do agree with the jokinen part, he is a goal scorer so they now have to rely on tanguay to set up iginla and jokinen
never heard of the cameron guy, probably because he was overshadowed by seguin and hall
i do agree with the tanguay part about him being able to get 80+ points, that is what he is capable of, but he has yet to prove it, so if jokinen can play like he did in florida and iginla can return to that 40+ goals/90+ points platform, then i agree alex can reach 80+ points easily
