There wasn’t any research that would have turned up something like that. Dude had been an NHL coach between the incident and the Flames hiring him. The only ones who knew were ex-minor team players and the Flames can’t be expected to call them all.
As far as afterwards - we don’t know the contract terms and what they can do or not do as far as termination. But he wasn't going to be working for them no matter what. Do we really care that they threw him the bone of resigning? It was like Nixon resigning because they told him he’d be impeached.
