Maybe I just believe that you should work for what you pay, and if you constantly show up to work unfit and poor conditioning, you are known to be a party animal and not show up to work ready, you are underperforming, and then you give your employer a legal way out of your contract... I think the choice is very obvious.
That is all fine and good, but the NHL CBA wasn't drafted that way. Guaranteed contracts, with an "out" clause that has never been used, to my knowledge.
It is about a level playing field, in my mind. If the Flames did it, I would be pissed as well.

O.K. there has been a lot of talk on whether or not MacTavish has actually done a good job for us, most fans on this board are very basic in their analysis and I feel would change their opinion entirely if the team was successful.
