You may be on to something. Boomer let it slip this morning that Mike told it like it was and wasn't afraid to criticize which bothered the Flames who asked him to tone it down and he wouldn't back down.
We all know that Edwards and the owners were terrified of a rebuild and what could happen to attendance. I wouldn't be surprised if they wanted to bring in a more positive voice while the team was going through growing pains. I hope that we are wrong here as I will have a hard time stomaching the kool aid dousing that Oilers fans have been subjected to in Edmonton. I personally find it insulting to fans but given the lack of faith the ownership seems have in Flames fans I wouldn't be shocked if there is truth to this.
