Can you elaborate on this 'contact'? There are few in the hockey media I trust less than Garrioch as he's basically Eklund with a real job. Honestly I'm not sure even Weisbrod would be privy to this unless it's already been decided and is just a formality waiting to be announced at the end of the season.
If true it's bitter sweet. King has done a lot of good things for the Calgary Flames but it seems his inability to keep out of hockey operations has tarnished what should have been looked at as a pretty successful tenure.
