Ken King isn't the problem, he is a businessman. He makes business decision and works on things like getting a new arena and how to crush people's hands with surprising efficiency but he isn't responsible for a powerplay that generates zero shots. He doesn't make hockey decisions and if he did he should be fired because he isn't a hockey guy, he works on the business end of the spectrum. Oddly enough the reason he is good at his job is the same reason that people are calling for his head - he is visible... does anyone remember who the President of the Calgary Flames was before? Who the President of 28 of the other clubs are (the only one I know is Lowe in Edmonton)... I don't have a clue.
