Who doesn't love fan favourite fourth liners? Well, you tend to stop loving them when they can't reach the expectations their salaries demand. About that...
Remember Brandon Prust? He was a third round draft pick of the Calgary Flames, back in the 2004 NHL entry draft. Prust had two separate stints with the Flames over the course of three years, ultimately playing just 78 games for the team. He scored two goals and seven points over those games.
Despite his ultimately lacklustre contributions, he was still remembered for his time as a Flame, and fast became a fan favourite thanks to his fighting and overall gritty play.
