Why ten years later? are you kidding? Peters wrote a letter to the GM to get the kid sent to the E. He had no power in it at all. Why should Peters not be held accountable? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he told the brass that he never said it and then the TSN story broke? Yeah I'm hoping that we eventually get to hear his side of this. I'm sure Calgary will release a statement soon about this though which may include something 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure they heard rumors about Peters, but I'm not sure if they knew the full extent of it. Much like with Toronto and Babcock I would think, but it's hard to say since we don't usually ever hear about anything that happens behind closed doors The Aliu incident also happened in the Blackhawks organization, and it appears they had no idea either. Glad to see the Flames take action quickly though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But this is not a “Calgary Flames” problem, this is a “Bill Peters” problem. The coaches, the players, and the fans of the Flames are not culpable, here. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Akim Aliu's credibility is determined by the league that he plays in then pray tell us, what league do you play in? Plus, plus, plus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rekker Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 Not sure if the firing is confirmed yet. The times we live in. Should a man lose his livelihood on words uttered 10 years ago, with a different organization? That's to be debated. Where is the line now? Ultimately Peters represents the franchise and this is a bad stain that will ultimately cost Peters his job if the allegations are true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An indefinite suspension untill the issue was properly investigated seems more fair. I bet Peters said that stuff but if he didn't man that would be a real injustice.
