It is a legitimate question, many fans see Grossman and honestly scratch their head.

So to be clear it is ok to ask about other aspects of the team's play, IE: the best players not being our best, but it isn't ok to ask about why we play a tugboat like Grossman.

Where is the line with what he can answer or be asked. In that case, all questions should be broad based general hockey operations, with no discussion regarding on ice play or player/coaching issues.

So what can "we" ask Burke?

Burke shouldn't go on air when the reason he was there was to promote the superskills competition and how its a huge charity event for the Flames Foundation as well as a great tool for minor hockey teams as a fundraiser?

How it's a great and affordable way to get kids up close and personal with their hockey heroes as they are the future fanbase and season ticket holders?

You are suggesting he shouldn't do that without having to answer difficult questions about the hockey team? (which he absolutely did BTW just not about the coaching staff which is entirely understandable 14 freaking games into their tenure)

This place sucks sometimes.
