That was their opinion weeks ago, it's was their opinion thursday morning, thursday afternoon and thursday night, was re-iterated to the Flames the following morning and as of writing this message, has not been redacted or contradicted in any way.

Exactly.

I have yet to see anything in print showing that the NHL has backed away from anything.

hypothetically, if there was, AT BEST, a 50/50 shot of the Flames winning this arbitration, was Feaster acting responsibly?

all the Feaster backers think rolling the dice with the organization's future was the "smart" thing to do?! Might as well spend a year's salary on lotto tickets...
