Like any player wouldn't pursue free agency with gusto when they had the opportunity.
Again, it reeks of jealousy because he's doing so well with a new team. It's like being mad at your ex-lover who was always out of your league realizing that they could find greener pastures elsewhere and having a better life without you.
Jealousy.

Piggybacking on your example, say the “out-of-your-league” Flames were the new lover and the Hurricanes were kicked to the curb. It absolutely makes sense that they would harbour resentment. What sane human being wouldn’t?
The head coach left for greener pastures. Of course the team would be upset about it regardless of the fact that an out clause was in existence and included in his contract. It still must sting for some individuals on that team, I reckon, and understandably so.
