After binging a good amount of Dragons Den, I think this should be required viewing for anyone looking to negotiate with the Calgary Flames.
It's been funny listening to Jim while the whole AM thing has been going on. If the apple doesn't fall far from the tree (yeah...), you're getting the guys fair and honest offer. He's clear about where you need to be for him to be in, and he's not likely to be playing games with you. At least on TV, I always love the respect he shows people's side and how politely firm he can be. He shows respect to their pitch no matter the size as long as they're realistic and passionate in what they're building. Things I wouldn't be surprised Brad carries as well.
If Treliving didn't budge from the QO all summer, I'd love to be a fly on the wall as the agent tried to sell this half-year of potential to a playoff team...
