An established vet wouldn't go through growing pains, but also wouldn't really bring in new ideas. At the end of the day we'll see, but I don't think it's great. It would have been nice to see if Shero or someone along those lines would have been available this off-season.

List the number of GM's that fit your bill and are contrary to Burke's description of what he wants as the Flames GM. There's not many available....
