I just think back to how <emotional damage> devastated Tree looked at the impromptu presser when he announced that Johnny was leaving. That dude cares. He's incredibly well respected, and would be able to walk out and find another job tomorrow. If he chooses to stay, it's as significant as a big-time home grown player who is on the brink of free agency choosing to stay.
I just hope he stays, and is given the opportunity to rebuild the team.

Agreed.
He gets flak for somethings that are not in his control. This seems to be a ownership group that likes to be involved and has a clear mandate and he has done the best job possible I think.
Calgary is a hard market to attract and keep players because of geography. I think he's done a great job in assembling a talented team.
His only knock is the coaches he has hired but I wonder if budget constraints have hampered his ability to go after the bigger fish.
It's a strange way to operate we will spend to the max on talent but about the guy leading the charge let's keep it cheap unless it's Sutter.
