Meh. Francis opinion carries no weight. He embarrassed himself last season after the the loss to the Avs calling out players like Monahan who was injured.
Edit: He's now doubling down saying Jeff Ward is absolutely the "guy" as head coach. Calling it nonsense that the Flames should be going after Laviolette and others because they won't pay (that may be true) for those guys.
