Yikes...waiting to see an actual statement from Daly and the Flames on this...but that evidence is pretty damning.
If this truly was an oversight by Feaster then he needs to be fired.

It seems like it's because of the fact that ROR played after the start of the season or something? In which case he would have effectively screwed himself on other potential offers from other teams? You'd think ROR's agent would have been privy to this - although we still have no idea if any these articles have merit

Oh look TSN doesn't give credit to Sportsnet. How shocking.

I think they could have, but considering they would have had to give him a $2.5 million signing bonus just to sit out for a year... wow.
Feaster lucked out on that one.

Unless they weren't aware, which they clearly were not, and initiated the process of re-entry.

Can they leave him in Europe to do that? I would assume so.
They don't have to activate him on their roster do they?

Grounds for termination, I would think so

Wow, if Feaster didn't know about this, he needs to go. That would have been the biggest error you possibly could make as a GM. He better have had a plan for this, a way to get around it or something, otherwise he's the dumbest manager in the league.

We would have given up our 1st, 3rd, 2.5M, only had O'Reilly for 1 year at 6.5M before having to qualify him...just wow.

Read the TSN article
Quote:
|
According to the Kontinental Hockey League's website, O'Reilly - who was unsigned until Thursday night - played for Metallurg Magnitogorsk on Jan. 21 and Jan. 23 (written in the game sheets as 'Rayan O Rayli'). And as NHL deputy commissioner Bill Daly told TSN on Friday, O'Reilly would have had to clear waivers to join the Flames if he actually played in the KHL after the start of the NHL season on Jan. 19.

I think Colorado looks like morons as well. If they knew about this, and they had first crack back at O'Reilly, they could have walked away with a 1st, a 3rd, and a signed O'Reilly.
Feaster may be a dumb nugget, but Sherman is creamy ogre slime.

Did you even bother to read the article?
According to the Kontinental Hockey League's website, O'Reilly - who was unsigned until Thursday night - played for Metallurg Magnitogorsk on Jan. 21 and Jan. 23 (written in the game sheets as 'Rayan O Rayli').

Boy.
Can you IMAGINE what would have happened in this place, giving up a lottery pick and a third only for Columbus to end up with O'Reilly?
Oh god.
Oh God.
OH GOD.

So if this story holds weight, does someone need to be fired, or is it a forgivable 'oops' moment?
