What has me perplexed is that it always seemed that the Flames were going to bring him back to a front office job/scouting/coaching etc. For him to go on a Calgary radio station when his NHL career over and essentially call Stockton and a lot of AHL cities #### holes makes me think he isn't a very intelligent person. He just bit the hand that could potentially feed him. We aren't even talking just about the Flames here, we are talking the league. Where the hell does he think his post NHL career will start? It most certainly won't be in the show, it will be in the ECHL and AHL.
Oh I see now. I misunderstood you. Yeah, I can see him biting the hand a bit. But I doubt the Flames would want McGrats back anyways in a management role. From his interview it doesn't seem to come off as him thinking highly of the game anymore
