And he has admitted that he has surrounded himself with a team of professionals that help him do his job. He works within a team, no GM operates on their own.

And we all know that people above him also meddle in hockey operations for the Calgary Flames. That is probably the biggest issue.

Look at his negotiations for re-signing some of his players:

Anton- middle of the summer, most of the UFA market is done, and he still for some reason gives Anton a 2 year , $5million contract with a clause.

Sarich - last summer gives him a clause and a 2 year $ 4 million contract.

Comeau- wanted to sign him for 2 years when up to that point he had showed nothing

Tangs- not a bad contract but to many years

Glencross- great contract, but Ken King seems to have done most of the work.


In another post i said that he works in a team, but from what i see what he brings to the team is negotiations and i dont think he is very good at it.
