dont the flames have pretty much a hands off approach? The hitmen are there to make money and you make money by putting the best players out there at all times in order to make playoffs and make more money.
plus it has to be somewhere in the nhl rules and regs that the flames or oilers (for the oil kings) can't dictate what goes on with the hitmen or oil kings in order to prevent this from happening (like is there any ducks prospects playing for the oil kings? that could've got interesting).
