The 1 comment on that linked article pretty much sums it up for me.

His twitter profile says "Director Western Region Scouting" for the Blades so I'm guessing this was amicable.

 

[Jumptheshark]

I suspect a few of you are happy

They wouldn't let him do both? Seriously?

 

[Cloned]

How is he qualified to scout?

Seriously?

Seriously?

What makes any scout qualified? Getting it right 5% of the time?

for a guy who tweeted everything under the sun--he sure has been mum on the subject

Well, generally you would expect a scout to have some sort of background and credentials in the game of hockey that extends beyond broadcasting. Most scouts are either former players, coaches, learned the scouting game from their father, etc.

He knows the owner.

 

[doulos]

Scouting is an 'old boys club' kind of thing. As long as you can talk the hockey language and rub elbows with the right guys you can get a job. It's not something where you need credentials as far as I can tell. Particularly at the Jr hockey level.

Is that "good for you" or "go **** yourself"?

Yeah, can't see someone hired by a competitor of the Oilers' junior squad being allowed to keep a job at such a major partner of the Oilers. Probably a fair bit of talk of potential teenage prospects that the Oil Kings would rather not share with their competitors.

If it pays better, I can't blame him.

 

[Del Preston]

If it pays better, I can't blame him.

'Given the boot' would suggest they fired him, no?

 

[AlowlyMcOilersfan]

Pretty sure he knew there would be a conflict of interest though... he had to have known

I mostly liked Tencer (except for his holier than thou rants about Lance Armstrong). CHED sports radio has been a joke since he switched to afternoon talk.
Not surprised he's moving on. He is far too smart to waste his life babbling on the radio.
