A guy with contacts in business & sports all over North America is invaluable as President of Hockey Ops for the Flames. I would hope he's trying to promote the Flames 'brand' with new & improved corporate deals & relations. I would also hope he's using his contacts to work out which teams are likely to be willing to part with good assets that would improve the Flames. Would you rather he hang out in Calgary & pester people over the phone?
