Its amazing what happens when you hire respected, competent hockey people like Brian Burke. He brings in another respected competent guy in Treliving who then is able to attract top candidates to fill other positions.
Truly a surreal time to be a Flames fan. It's unfortunate it's taken Murray Edwards and Ken King this long to get it right but once you get the right management in place in hockey ops the other pieces fall into place.

So true. With Feaster in charge the Flames were becoming the joke of the NHL. Not that all the blame should go on Feaster, Ken King deserves some as well. With Burke in charge he won't take crap from idiots above him.
