I just don't see how you can say clearly when it's "clearly" not.
Yeah with Burke coming out the way he did, I don't think we should be thinking our head coaching hires have been a result of the owners being unwilling to pay for a top tier head coaches.

I think it's more likely just a result of:

- us having poor/inexperienced general managers (Feaster was poor, Treliving inexperienced)
- desirability of the Calgary market for top tier free agents (coaches and players)
