Ownership seems to have a very very hard time accepting that people who don't really work for them, shouldn't be getting paid.  I think it bothers Calgary ownership more so than other teams with buyouts, contract firings for management/coaching and more.   Same thing with trades and retention.   I am not saying it never happen but I think the justification needs to be strong. 
 
I am not saying mental illness is the same thing as a firing/trade but dollars went out and Oliver was not able to play very much in recent memory.  Flames showed patience and perhaps would like it extended back with a let's see how it goes contract.

You have completely made this up, and nothing supports this at all.
