No one is discussing this. The media isn't. Why would they? They're soft. Write soft pieces. Are buddies with the players because they just want to be in with the crew.
He was a sinkhole/drag on the entire team during the time on ice that he had. FACTS/STATS prove this.
YET - he made statements disparaging 10% of the fanbase because he doesn't share the same views.
People on this board take that as acknowledgement/validation that their views on "not tanking" are more valid than the "10%" that want to tank. This 10% figure is just a made up number. I'm sure the figure is much higher.
Regardless- it's got nothing to do with the message. He had no right to say anything about any fan at all after the abysmal season he had.
Weegar could. Huberdeau could. Backlund could. Kadri could. Coleman could. Wolf could.
Saying inflammatory/honest comments after putting up a career worst season just shows you lack self-awareness. Fans still pay their salaries. Fans are still the customer. No matter their views. ALL fans.

STL’s Monty hire for the HC job is what got the Flames. Not just one player. Unless you’re relying on Andersson to be scoring a goal a game it is not all on him. Come on now.
