Here's everything we know about the Senators sale, and why it's taking so long to announce a conditional owner.

Shoot, didn't think of that. I don't know the answer but I guess there is the potential he wouldn't be there anyways.

This may have played into the Martian's calculus....
It's just like those horoscope writers. They know exactly how to make accurate "predictions".
You're overreacting because Dorion is getting fired - let your hearth do the talking

Hey man, as always, if he is in fact the new GM (it's all a rumor at this point). I hope he does a great job. I want this team to win. I don't want another management group to shit on. I will give him all the opportunities in the world to change my perspective on him. At this moment, I would rather have a different GM, but I am not in charge, so I will roll with whomever they hire. If that new GM sucks ass at his job, I will call a spade a spade like I always do.

For anyone interested, here is the full transaction list for Chiarelli. I didn't dive too far into it, but the Boston period looks mostly okay, no?

Please, Mathieu Darche? Please for the love of Alfie
We need to make the right moves, no margin for error anymore as Dorion already went way beyond that

20 bucks says he’s there tonight and nothing is done until they return to Ottawa.

You told the other guy I was overreacting because I said Dorion was out and Chiarelli was in. That is literally the rumour this thread is about. So I don't understand how I am overreacting.

Peter Chiarelli's 10 best moves and 10 worst moves as Edmonton Oilers general manager
It wasn’t all bad in Peter Chiarelli’s time as GM of the Edmonton Oilers. In 2016-17 he put together a series of deals that helped end Edmonton’s Decade of…edmontonjournal.com
Chiarelli was bad for the Oilers. Dude was awful. Set the team back years.
I would watch press conferences from him and he seemed so clueless about the Team. Like he wasnt even watching the Team he was a GM for. There were rumours that came out later that he had kind of separated himself from large portions of the team. It was clearly evident that him and McLellan were never on the same page. I hope for Ottawa fans sake, that Chiarelli just stays as an advisor or whatever he is now. I think theres probably a better chance of Staios becoming the GM. Which I dont know if its a good thing or bad thing (I am sure its better than Chiarelli at the very least).
At least for the Senators sake, you have lots of good young players locked up and are close to the cap. On one hand, being capped out is bad for flexibility but on the other hand, it prevents a GM like Chiarelli from making some bad moves.

Major backtracking. Doesn't take a genius to know he's on shaky ground.

Yeah, I hear you, I know we all want the same thing. I just feel like theres a lot made of "he's a good GM" vs "he sucks" when a lot of GMs who have failed spectacularly go on to have success and a lot of GMs who've had a ton of success go on to shit the bed. Chiarelli has done a bit (or a lot) of both

Ya I'm on the fence with this one, but I'm starting to lean towards it being a "prediction".
And yes, like those damn tarot card readers and I have to hear all about how amazing they were blah blah blah.

I'm willing to give Andlauer and Staios the benefit of the doubt when it comes to evaluating their hire for GM. These are not stupid people, and they aren't going to bring someone in on a whim.

I want Dorion gone as much as the next guy, but f*** LM.
Hope this buries his public credibility.

let's see,
Option 1...you travel on a chartered flight. Sit in the front. free booze, food, etc.
land, a bus to the hotel. 5 Star.
call the other GM, meet for a dinner somewhere or at the arena. Everything is paid.
Watch the game. Chat some more with whomever.. back on the bus, on the plane, be in Ottawa (Late, I grant you).. drive home, sleep, be at the office the next day at 10. away from the office for 24 hours
option 2.. stay in Ottawa, work at the office from 8-8, watch game. communicate with phone only..deal with 100 issues.. no booze, no schmooze. Andlauer around, CFO around.
I doubt a GM would ever go on a trip.
