Bye-bye Playfair...hello Iron Mike?

So Sutter was fired?

Given history though, Keenan could cost far more than simply not winning the cup.

Some players may decide that their furture would be better with another club where the management do not think the whip is the way to lead.

If Keenan's behaviour is par, and one or two of the important UFAs say '**** this, I'm outta here', then this would be a truely boneheaded move.

The situations are totally parallel.

Yeah, totally, except that they aren't.

And Quinn was fired? Yes he was fired as coach and stayed on as GM.

I love the Iron Mike era of the Flamers.

So then you think Sutter was fired as coach.

The reasons to think the Flames just shot themselves in the foot are real. You don't need to make false comparisons to the Canucks to see it.

But that's half the fun!

Otherwise I would come off as a knowledgeable hockey fan and not an idiot homer.

You have to be an idiot to be a fan of Vancouver. I've yet to meet a Vancouver fan who isn't an idiot.
