Francis sees these stories, that have to have a (potential) larger context/audience then the Calgary market (which is debatable, only serious fans of NHL probably know of Pelletier) to try and make some personal brand/“hay” with. After writing ridiculous articles like this, it knows it will be an ego stroke as it gets him on Edmonton or Vancouver sports radio as the “Flames insider” probably this week.
He will never get back on HNIC like he was for that one year, but he thinks he might, every time he can grab onto a story or situation and sensationalize it.
Sutter does not and has never given Francis the time and the feels that Francis thinks he deserves.
