To answer your question, this morning on the morning show. Admitted to pegging Backlund wrong when he got here.
You are also confusing your desire to have full transperancy around what's going on behind closed doors with the Flames as him being a windbag that lies. NHL executives have to lie or with hold the truth from fans and media when the topic is something that could impact their ability to get a deal done from the team.
He absolutely is obnoxious, I'll give you that. One of the most obnoxious for sure. He also clearly thinks very highly of himself...........but most people who get to positions and success in their chosen professions like he has often do, they tend to go hand in hand.
