Which the Flames really want in mainstream media. Your average CP user tends to know the ins and outs of the team on and off the ice. But there's a lot of fans in the city that don't really know much, Francis can bend their ear quite easily, especially on business matters.

He doesn't need to know anything himself, he just has to convincingly convey "What helps the team is best for the fans and city".
