Mike Cammaleri Traded To Calgary

One day after criticizing the Montreal Canadiens organization for what he percieved as a lack of committment to winning, and his own lack of ice time, Mike Cammalleri was pulled from tonight's game against the Boston Bruins. He was sent back to the team's hotel; later, he was traded along with goalie Karri Ramo and a 5th pick in 2012 to the Calgary Flames — the team he left in 2009 to sign a free-agent deal in Montreal — for forwards Rene Bourque, Patrick Holland and a 2nd pick in 2013. Bourque tweeted that he "doesn't speak French, even though he has the most French name on the team". This is turning into a bizzare season in Montreal, with this trade, the firing of Francophone coach Jacques Martin at 7 A.M on a Saturday, and his replacement by Randy Cunneyworth, a unilingual coach who does NOT speak French, with accompanying protests from the fans.
