Is it actually? I'm not convinced of this. It seems like this would have been pretty close to average for the time Peters's contract was signed.

I don't doubt that the Flames cut corners to save money, but I am also sceptical that they are cutting these corners with their high-end personnel. The Flames brought Brian Burke in, and that was not cheap.
