Are these serious suggestions for the coach that not only helped cover up sexual abuse, but wrote a glowing reference for the perpetrator to go on and do it again to another kid?

Did not know that. Let me change my coaching suggestion to Boudreau

Don't worry, he is expected to meet with Bettman soon so I'm pretty sure that, as a result from that single meeting, Quenneville will be absolved from all prior misdeeds and welcomed back into the NHL with open arms. It's not like he declined to wear a pride jersey, or anything that extreme!

I'm still pretty disappointed in how they handled the Dubas thing.

If they did this I'd be out completely.

They've been stupid. But they can't honestly be THAT stupid. Can they?

This might be where having corporate overlords as owners might turn advantageous, as they are not interested in the image hit that comes with siding with moral bankruptcy (see Dusty Imoo hiring backfiring).

 

[herman]

The Penguins have passed on Eric Tulsky, so there?s a chance?

 

[herman]

Dubas left our cap sheet is very good shape, with flexibility to adjust to whatever it takes to retain Matthews.

We need to regain some team speed, and acquire more b-holes. Whistles go away after game 1/2 of every series. Let's be Team Fasstholes.

Would Corey Perry be considered a b-hole? I'm not sure that he's a fassthole though.

Definitely a b-hole - and the definition of a guy you hate to play against but would love to have on your team. Not sure how much he has left in the tank, though.
