I think it's a reasonable and fun idea. And I don't think Maher would tell Rogers to #### off if they rang him up with the proposal.

He's still very much invested in this team to this day.
Not remotely realistic and little chance Maher would want to go out and embarrass himself. Let’s not forget his ability to memorize players and keep up with the play had declined at the end of his career. He’s been out of the game so long he would have a difficult time calling Flames players let alone opposing players.
