Mac T is the right choice, guy hates to lose, has won as a player, success as a coach. Went back at his age and got his MBA Sure hes a rookie GM but knows the team and has a proven veteran asst GM in Howson. As for the old boys club comments, you can dig thru a lot of sports organizations and fins the same thing. Funny nobody in Edmonton bitches when the Esks bring back ex players, they do its called tradition and bringing back the "Eskimo Way"
Dallas has done it in the NHL many NFL teams do the same same with MLB
As for Mac Ts comments about being bold and taking risks..I am all for it. We have a plethora of assets and cap room now is the time to take the gamble, beats the hell outa the position Calgary is in where Ken King tell Uncle Feaster the teams goal is make the playoffs next year. Lol really? 8 players with NMC and two maybe NHL prospects? Que a summer of overpaying old UFAs again Calgary
