The likelier it is that his pro career is done, the more incentive he has to make this as difficult and expensive for the flames organization as possible.

Treliving has created a huge headache for his organization. There must be 100 coaches in North America qualified enough to coach a hockey team, and treliving hand picks this one.

Boy, if I hired someone who created this much negative press for my organization, and it was basically my personal endorsement that sold the hire, I'd be actively looking at employment elsewhere.

Jiri, imagine you hire someone at the radio station who is later accused some pretty awful workplace harrasment, and it was your endorsement of this individual that got this person hired in the first place.

Do you think there'd be heat on you?
I think we need more information to make that conclusion. Did Tre know about this at any point? If no, then no. If yes, then yes.

People vouch for others all the time. Yes some personal credibility is put on the line, but you only know what you know. If everyone he talked to clammed up due to "hockey culture", then how is this on Tre?

What matters is what he does when he actually knows information. On that he was forthright and honest last night. He is doing the right thing in taking it serious and not waving it off due to risk to himself.

I am willing to put money on him firing Bill at this point no question if this is proved to be detrimental to the organization.

That said, Flames need to hire Tre a real adviser not name Connie, as he has shown himself very weak in this area.

I get some don't like Bill and Glenn, but to expect anyone to be fired over something they didn't know at all is so over the top it is ridiculous.

Some need to understand the optics to "100 other coaches" out there that are watching this for a fair shake if/when they are called for an interview.
