I would be fine with Burke going to the sabres if he wanted too.

I see zero upside to that as is would leave a big vacancy as team president which means King likely fills in for the interim if he doesn't outright take the job back.

Nowadays everybody wanna talk like they got something to say
But nothing comes out when they move their lips
Just a bunch of gibberish
And mother####ers act like they forgot about Tre

Most jobs are open ended and don't have a fixed term. There are definite differences between this and the real world

Rather lose Burke than Treliving but also rather keep things as they are.

Default Do we bring back Tre ?

I believe one of Burke's daughters still lives and works in Calgary, so that report is erroneous...as far as I know.

Speculation time.

Friedman previously reported (a couple of months ago?) that Tre may not be back as GM and he wasn't happy about it. Maybe Burke made it known that he'll get out of his contract to jump at the first chance to be a GM again and King informed Treliving that Tre will get Burke's position and Conroy will get the GM. Tre didn't like this however because he wanted to remain GM of the team and take it as far as he could before accepting a promotion.

He has four daughters, two older ones from his first marriage and two younger ones from his second. The younger daughters live with their mother in Toronto and he travels frequently to Toronto to spend time with them.

I guess we'll see if the Flames actually value consistency and continuity, and if they like this model they created.

As has been reported by Friedman I believe, Flames seem to pride themselves on doing things differently than the rest of the league. Which has really yielded fantastic results over the years.

No news is good news.
The only news I want to hear is if a deal gets finalized, otherwise I am happy for the negotiations to be behind closed doors.

Are you really that surprised in a thread like this that people quickly scroll through the posts and probably have conditioned themselves to stop at a Sureloss post?
