Not opposed to this. The organization is basically saying we're going really young for the next couple of year so might as well bring in the right guys to help nurture them along.

That's exactly what i was thinking. Bring someone in who knows how to build up players transitioning from Junior to Pros

Looks like he was with the London Knights for about a decade.

Like hiring Tourigny.

Maybe this is an elaborate play to keep Dvo happy. Maybe work is just slow and I'm thinking out of my a**. Up to you to decide.

I think the better way to keep Dvo happy would have been to not let it be known that they were listening to trade offers for him.

I think every team listens to offers on basically every player, no reason not to (save a few of the big guys ala Crosby, Ovi, etc.). The important note was never that we were shopping him like he has to move. Teams definitely looked at our situation and wanted to take a stab at him.

A pro athlete should understand they are entering into a business arrangement with the team. The player trys to win games and the team compensates them generously. It's a not a marriage or a dog you adopted from the pound; lose the emotional attachment. Any player that gets upset based on trade talk needs to grow up.

Major college football strength coaches make a ridiculous amount of money. You would think a pro-level coach would be higher, but I bet it's much lower. Of course, college football revenue at the top end is undoubtedly higher than the average NHL team too.

Previous guy didn't have anywhere near that experience. One year at EXOS, two years at a YMCA, three years at a local tennis club.

LOLOLOL! That's gonna leave a mark...

 

[Matias Maccete]

Looks like a hire based off of resume and merit. Is this allowed?

Every player on the Yote's are available for the right price. There is absolutely no harm to listen to any and all trade offers.

That can be done with less fan fair.

I think that most players know that they're always being talked about and could always end up on the move. It's part of the job.

Heck, with the moves we made this off-season, Dvorak would be a fool if he hadn't already considered packing his bags. Media attention or not.

Probably planned on getting the call just off the fire sale going on around him.

Must have a criminal background or something lol!

Professional athletes aren't robots.

Right. They have a brain. So use some logic and realize trades are part of being a pro athlete and in most cases it's nothing personal. It's a business decision.

That's hard to do in this day and age.

 

[Jormungandr]

So we’re hiring him out of the Goldberg and Hofford regime?

Wouldn't it be the Hunter regime?

Ten years....... he should know the rules about pre-draftee workouts real well then.

I don’t care who was in charge
