This is like when the sea recedes before a tsunami

Leblanc out. Mann out.

Leeder and Alfie rumored to come back in.

The tide is turning.

That’s pretty expected with what’s happened in the past 6 months.

We will hear about a lawsuit I’m sure from his brother in the coming months.

Unfortunate, he’s one of the few good pieces in the organization.

Curious if he resigned or was fired.

So we need a new director of scouting now. Considering how bad we've been drafting outside of 2020 this is welcome news.

 

[DaveMatthew]

I'm curious as to how many posters who were singing his praises just a couple weeks ago will now turn around and say he was never any good anyway and tricked Dorion into picking Tyler Boucher?

 

[Laphroaig]

I'm ecstatic.

 

[Boud]

Would be curious to know the reason but the entire management staff will be changed at some point, probably at the end of the year.

 

[Emerica]

Was he in the pictures of the brass at Dev camp with Andlauer? Don’t think so right? You’d think the AGM responsible for the draft would have been there, writing was on the wall

 

[Liver King]

damn that sucks, Dorion next?

Always focused about posters on here. Just be happy!

Pierre, I'm going to need you to fire your AGM, your amateur and pro scouting staff, and your operations staff this week. See you Monday!

Does it really matter? They're going to turn over this entire front office - with the possible exception of Bowness.

 

[Ouroboros]

Not one bit surprised to hear this.

I think a change in draft strategy could be welcome. Things have gotten stale in that area.

Throw money at Al Murray.

A snake rots from the head.

Make it happen Andlauer. Complete the prophecy.

 

[NyQuil]

I don't think our drafting has been that bad, but I've seen some horror shows in other organizations out there.

My major issues with management of the team's personnel is generally fixed on our free agent signings and trades.

Jim Clark has tenure, apparently.

Trent Mann was at the Development Camp on that balcony, they are always there. He has been at every camp I have attended since he's been with the organization along with the other scouts situated in Ottawa. Nice guy. very approachable.

Remember, Dorion is the ultimate decision-maker, so drafting Boucher was his fault.

Keep in mind though that it was easy to draft Tkachuk and Sanderson because the scouts do all the real work.

Troy Mann was fired a few months ago. I always wondered if this was inevitable or whether this is just a generalized house cleaning.

 

[swiftwin]

I do find it interesting that Andlauer said they would quickly come to a settlement over the way Dorion fired Troy, which I assumed meant they wanted to keep Trent happy.

If Trent is gone, then does it mean that Dorion is sticking around?

You don't have to outrun the bear, you just have to outrun the other guy outrunning the bear.
