If he ends up blogging at the hockey news again, it'll be because it's what he wants to do while waiting for another NHL job, not because it's the best he can do.

Sorry, I just always get irked by the way people talk about NHL figures when they aren't successful, like they're complete garbage. Making it suond like a guy like Feaster could get fired as GM of the Flames, then head out to Law firms in Calgary with a resume and have them all go "Jay Feaster? Yeah no, sorry buddy, I saw what you did with the Flames, we don't have a place for you here, your career is done. If I were you, I'd just retire all my suits, buy some comfrotable sweat pants and start blogging, that'll be the best you can do, going forward".
Well, (1) has he worked as a lawyer?, (2) he can't work as a lawyer here and (3) it's been so long since he has been a lawyer, there is little chance of him going back to it. You are working way too hard to split hairs here. I was simply making an insinuation, based on the "Dowbiggen..." thread, that this may be his last appearance as Flames' GM... Jebus willing.
