Perhaps years from now Treliving will come out and say what Riser did - "that he learned not to allow things to get personal". Burke of course doesn't learn.
Either way the fans suffer.
The situations have nothing in common. You are comparing a contract squabble involving, not just one of the Flames' best players at the time - but in the league. A guy that could have easily taken home the Conn Smythe - to a unproven prospect getting traded because he was upset about not getting playing time?

In what ways are the situations common at all?
