Basically Huska was pulled over to Ward, they talked for a sec and then Huska abruptly ended the practice telling the players "Get off the ice."

#Flames abruptly ended morning skate. Geoff Ward called Ryan Huska over to the bench, they had a short chat, Huska blew his whistle and told all the players to get off the ice.

All I'd copied earlier, don't remember who it was from

Asked Jaccob Slavin if he’s surprised by the allegations coming out about Bill Peters:
“Not really much to say just focused on the game right now and the guys in this room”

Jordan Staal: “We’re putting it behind us”

Rod Brind’Amour: “It definitely happened.”
A current head coach who was Peters long term assistant going on record is a pretty big deal. He would only offer a no comment, that is Calgary's problem yesterday.

To clarify this is about the allegations that Bill Peters kicked Michal Jordan and punched another Canes player in the head on the bench

I think they come out of this looking okay. They removed the GM who was protecting the abusive coach, and moved on from the coach.

If you are Seattle, are you suddenly concerned about Francis being your GM? Maybe Francis has learned from his mistake and now realizes that you can't protect a coach because that's the way it was when he played in the 80s and 90s and he'll be okay to stay on, but if I was in charge in Seattle I would definitely be having a conversation with Francis.

Wow, this just keeps getting worse? So brutal.

I met Bill Peters last year just after he it came out that he was named as one of the coaches in the Allstar game. It was a chance meeting at a gas station of all places. He gave me about 10 minutes of his time and was very engaging. I came away very impressed with the man. All of this news just floors me.

the more allegations come out about peters from previous organizations, the worse it looks for the flames IMO

This is such lazy journalism. No, not everything is news. Anderson is typically one of the better members of the Flames media as well.

The Seattle Times is on the case.

You have to think there will be a reckoning there.

The more that comes out about Bill Peters, the worse it looks for Bill Peters. I know you're always reaching for the dramatic alarmist angle (for anything) but try to take a deep breath.

This is such a huge headache for that organization.

We also know that while the GM is the GM, their hierarchy does not run top down through him. If this is a problem for them, they will keep their hockey ops department in tact and find a new GM that fits their org IMO.

No fiefdom there, just a very expectant ownership that needs this venture to hit the ground running, not be putting out player abuse fires before they ever play a game.
