f*** Quenneville. He's a piece of shit.

 

[Kaners Bald Spot]

Q is a POS that deserves the Pete Rose treatment.
The fact that he is coaching tonight is an insult to Beach and others.
f*** the Panthers for basically making the same mistake that the Hawks made.

 

[ClydeLee]

Will he... I've always said about borderline cases were hardware is involved... as long as HOF voters are mostly good old hockey boys. Yes he will still be voted in.

 

[WickedPegJets]

Coach Q’s nonaction was deplorable and much worse than what Pete Rose did. To even consider him as worthy of the Hall of Fame would be an affront to all those enshrined there.

 

[deytookerjaabs]

He's currently playing ignorant, or he is ignorant. He BS'd about having the meeting but that could have been recommended to him.

The lawsuit should turn over many stones if the prosecution is at all competent.

Of course, until some testimony shows that Q knew Beach was raped I'm not ready to say with that's a fact with 100% certainty unlike many of you. The beans will be spilled.

Seems like at the very least he knew there was an allegation of sexual harassment and advocated for burying it.

Based on the current information I do not think that Q can be put in the HOF at this time. This is something that will ultimately ruin his legacy in most way. HOF coach that made a unforgivable mistake.

Doesn't look good.

But these guys live with each other 2/3rds of the year, no doubt whatever Q knew others knew about his awareness of the situation...likely many people and hopefully soon we'll know exactly how things played out. He was as dismissive about the situation in his recent presser as he supposedly was in 2010.

 

[Mrfenn92]

Yes

 

[LordKOTL]

Ask me after Thursday.

 

[Salvaged Ship]

The only way he would have a chance is if he came completely clean and was sincerely apologetic to Beach about his actions. If he continues to play ignorant he is done in hockey. If he accepted his irresponsibility and apologized to Beach for his inactions and Beach forgave him he might still have a chance to stay in hockey down the road.

[madgoat33]

He has denied it at least twice now, right? Not a good look.

 

[ChiHawks10]

Yeah, f*** him. Panthers need to send him packing, and he shouldn't ever get another coaching job, or be in the HoF. Let him be a reminder to coaches to protect their players.

 

[Marotte Marauder]

I have no idea why Bettman is meeting with Q and Chevy. The report is completed and very damning of both. Bettman should be talking to the Jets and Panthers owners and tell them those 2 are no longer to be associated with the NHL. Fire them! Or do you prefer that I do it?

 

[RayP]

Q’s situation IMO is much worse than say Gruden who lost his job over some emails.


And I full support Gruden being canned. Just think what Q did, or rather didn’t do, is much much worse.

 

[Crow]

Hard to say right now. A lot of allegations but exactly what did he know? I’m not sure. He looks like shit right now but is he for sure? Did anyone else collaborate the accusations made that he knew “it”. What is it? What did he know exactly?

It’s pretty appalling the league is allowing Quenneville to coach tonight. At the very least, he should be on leave before that meeting with Bettman.

He didn’t want justice for a victimized player to interfere with his or the team’s legacy.

 

[madgoat33]

I wonder how much or if any personal liability these guys have. The franchise is ultimately responsible, but makes me wonder if there will be any direct suits towards q, mcd, or bowman.

 

[Jamie Winston]

Oof so ready for this to go away.

All you need to know is that Beach said there was no way Q didn't know, and that there were meetings in Q's office regarding it(I believe that's what was said).

 

[ChiHawks10]

Edit: Wrong thread.

 

[Crow]

I still don’t know what he knew. What was presented to Q? Maybe the truth, maybe some bullshit that Gary told him. Seems like Gary had already decided that it was beach’s fault.

The reason why Bettman is still commissioner, despite being in charge of a league that was locked out twice while he was boss, is because the BoGs love him. He always does right by them.

This is another example of that - it's just long enough so that Bettman doesn't have to make tough decisions out of the hands of the BoGs, yet it's just enough to give the perception that the league are involved and taking the matter seriously (which, if they truly were, would have either investigated it several months ago OR have sidelined some of the others involved immediately upon publication of yesterday's report)
