You know, unlike you I really don't care about Feaster. He's in Tampa and no longer a part of the Flames organization. He had a crappy job to do and he did it with some good and some bad results. He deserved to be fired and it's done. Move on. The rest of have.

It wasn't obvious at all. The only problem seemed to be is that we had three goalies that all sucked at the beginning of the year. Not one of them stood up to take the job which was curious and Treliving couldn't waive anyone in case that one turned out to be the best, especially Ortio who became waiver eligible. Treliving was stuck between a rock and a hard place. It happens.
It didn't help that the coach wouldn't give Ortio a chance and was vocal about not carrying three goalies, which didn't provide solid leadership either.
I'm glad you're finally over Feaster and it doesn't colour your rating of Treliving as much as it used to but it's strange you're the only one who's calling for Treliving's head.
