That's cool, and I don't necessarily disagree with you that he maybe should've been shut down once Flames were mathemtically eliminated, but I think it's naïve to think Tanev didn't want to play himself, and they played him against his will. So firing anyone for this is dramatic.
Considering the injury he had when games didn't matter anymore, it's seems pretty obvious that he wanted to finish the season out even if he has a bad injurty.
