After the mention of the position change is where Bean should have ended his inclusion in the press conference though or at least always deferred to Maloney on anything hockey related.

Okay, so if we haven't figured out this thread. It's basically a look at who Murray Edwards is directly trotting out an accountant. There is a problem here. That's my subtle indication.

Can anyone give me or show me an example of an accountant on media representing an NHL organization as front face. CEO CFO or not?

This chart is my point.

Wait, what are we talking about?
No, you're on the right path.

Where was Bean's helicopter?

They can call it "mutual", but it's clear from what was said that it was entirely Treliving's decision.
What is your source?

The other point is what other teams in the NHL have a person like this in the media?
He’s not the accountant. He’s not the CFO. He’s the President and CEO, a position he has held for four years (2019). This is not new information. He did not fire Treliving, Treliving quit. Teams also have their President/CEO in the media about as often, if not significantly more so, as the Flames trot Bean out.

No offence, but everything that seems weird about this seems to be because you don’t understand who people are and what has happened.

I think the real question is if John Bean can play goal. I mean, we have a Vezina caliber goaltender and all, but maybe Bean's best value to the organization can be as a netminder?

I don't think it matters so much who these guys are or what they do. They don't play on the ice, and they don't have a lot of influence on how those players play the game.

Look further down the corporate structure and you'll find the culprit.

Ken King was Calgary. When I think of this city and the true people of this city he is the definition.

Kind hearted, Loyal, Resilient, Hardworking.

He may not have always been right or done what the majority wanted but he always was accountable to the people who depended on his vision, guidance and support.

As long as he knows his domain and lets the people with the expertise operate how they will.

If he hires the right guy to help this team succeed then it won't matter what we think of him. You just hope he gets the hire right.

Direct quote from Maloney: “Brad Treliving is a good friend and I think a very good hockey man. And he left us for his reasons, but we move on.”

Can we focus on why an accountant is in a presser for an NHL team?

Did Murray make him do it. I'd prefer the honesty of Brad.

This has to be one of the dumbest threads in the last year.
