Time is a flat circle for this franchise. We've seen this all before.

I thought he was completely nuts when he took over, but after listening to him on Frank Seravalli’s podcast I think teams could learn a thing or two from Tom Dundon and how he’s been running the Hurricanes since he took over.
He hires good coaches and good GM’s and trusts them. If the players aren’t working out or want too much money they aren’t afraid to shuffle them out.
He also made some comments about advice other owners gave him (about firing coaches and GM’s) and thought it was garbage.
I’d love to see the Flames emulate what they do. Carolina likely wouldn’t have signed Huberdeau to that contract before he played a single game for them.
