Do you think that if and when Burke decides that he should be GM he won't want his own coach? and that Hartley would be his first choice?

well I will hedge my comment... maybe Burke will re-hire Feaster as GM and then Hartley stays.
With the dearth of (top end) talent that Calgary possesses, it is, honestly,
difficult to imagine that anyone else could draw water from a stone the way Hartley has this season.

The change of culture to that of hard work and heartfelt determination, that was missing for several seasons, is attributable in large part to him.
