It's truly uncanny. Thank god we have a legal system because there would be a lot of people hung for nothing.

Apparently he was physically accosted by a Vegas higher up in an elevator after a story he put out there a few years ago.

Obviously you should never do that to any one (and I'm no fan of the Vegas organization), but maybe he ticks off people in the game for a reason. Probably spins a lot of #### without considering the ramifications of that information circulating.

Frank got what he wanted. The Flames are looking like fools and his name is everywhere, while the real reporting done by respected people like LeBrun and Friedman buried.

Buried? You’re obviously reading only what you want to see as there has been discussion on posts/reports by both LeBrun and Friedman in this thread and others.

They are being mocked on Twitter now because of this dumb report. Now one is talking about how earlier today Friedman and LeBrun said the Flames would do retention.

Now everyone is using his Edwards and management killed the deal crap.

Twitter isn't the best place to judge human reaction to events.

I'm pretty sure Edwards will survive a few bad tweets about him.

Frank hates the Flames, I am sure of it. Anything positive about the Flames, he plays it down. Anything negative, and he piles on.
