There are moments in our lives that we consider transformative. They make us realize that there are bigger things than ourselves, bigger things than those things our enterprises do, and bigger things than any government can do, and they are very often a result of very small things we never think, because they have great value to others. This is obviously one of those moments for Mr. King, and why he continues to speak of it. He, a man of position and of power, gave something so small, to someone who was about to die, and it meant so much to that person and that person's family. This obviously mean something to him. It definitely meant something to that person's family. Shame on all of you for belittling this moment in Mr. King's life, and more importantly, that woman's life. Dislike his position, dislike his politics, dislike the man himself, but respect the beautiful thing he did for a dying woman and the memory it created for her family. They will never forget that, and it sounds like Ken King won't either.
Sure it could be that or it could be a cynical attempt to tug at the heartstrings of Flames fans and supporters.

Please. KK is milking that story for all it's worth for emotional appeal. I'm sure he does care for her, but he's using it as a tool rather than sincerity. It has lost it's luster when he keeps bringing it up over and over and over again during conferences.
If it means so much to him, he should name the arena after her.
The lunch and topic was scheduled some ago. This is a complete waste of time. How can you talk about the future of the business when you refuse to discuss capital investment plans?

Because it's just a part of the dog and pony show.

Fair, i would tell people that story too. I would tell them about that story when i talk about how much i love my job or like the people i work with, or feel like im making a difference.
I would not mention that story when im asking for a corporate subsidy in the hundreds of millions of dollars.
I once got a *sexual reference* in a *space*. I know when to not tell that story.
Let's presume 10,000 seat ticket holders (e.g., 10,000 individuals buying 45 tickets each), which might be a low assumption. That accounts for 450,000 of their 850,000 transactions, leaving them needing to find 400,000 transactions from the remaining 1.2 million Calgarians.
Except he’s saying it is 850k unique transactions and with only 1.2M that makes us a small market.
you guys are the ones that won't stop talking about it
show us how much you don't care by posting about it 20 times a day
Ken King won't stop talking about it either. If no one on his staff has pressed to him how unbelievably crass what he's doing is, then they should all be fired.
