I would expect that there was some kind of settlement with Peter's just to make sure he goes away quietly and doesn't come back later on. Mainly I believe this because of the inconsistencies in the story from AA and then Peter's statement (Bill stated he apologized, AA stated he didn't).
Peter's probably got the rest of this years owing or something like that.
Yeah I do feel sorry for Peter's family, not Peter's himself, We all get caught in the jet wash of a family members poor conduct and its harsh and cruel and unfortunate.
The Flames and the NHL will want to put this behind them as quickly as possible, but I don't think that's possible, however I'm sure that every current coach and assistant coach in the NHL and AHL and even Major Junior will have their teeth on edge for the next few months.
I don't know if the NHL and the Flames would have offered AA some kind of cash offer to stop.
But it seems likely.
