So, I guess he wasn't as good as gone? Now I don't know what to think. Looks like once again, not freaking out over something was the smart path.

"Don's leadership and experience are invaluable to our organization and I'm happy we were able reach an extension," said Dundon. "Don and I have a great relationship and he is someone I trust. I'm excited to continue to build a championship team with Don."

There's the quote I expected at the start of the offseason. Glad to have Waddell around for another few years.

OK so once again the thing Dundon said would happen has happened. Waddell isn't going anywhere for awhile.

Interesting to see that so far, the things that the front office says can pretty much be taken at face value.

Why the **** can't I like this more than once?

I posted it on the main board, too!

I don't know. I've also read you can't trust this ownership and front office.

Ohh, I don't usually bother with that, but I'm off!

 

[DaveG]

Unsurprising. If he was going to be named gm in Minnesota it would have been done rather quickly.

Excellent

But.... but.... but....

But he clearly wanted out. HE HAD NO CONTRACT. NO CONTRACT, DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND WHAT THAT MEEEEEEAAAAAAANS HE INTERVIEWED FOR ANOTHER JOB FOR HEAVENS SAKE!!! THIS CANNOT BE, DUNDON IS AN EMBARRASSMENT TO THE LEEEEEAAAAAAGUE!!!

 

[A Star is Burns]

Probably still at a disrespectful salary, so who cares?

Now get Williams signed and move forward with Aho, Williams and Waddell all back in the boat.

I was really thinking this morning that the Canes weren't in the news much these past few days so I wondered what Dundon would do next. It's almost like he's metering out these things and causing some drama to keep the Canes in the headlines.

Almost? That’s exactly what he’s doing.

Williams signing is probably going to be at some season ticket holder event or something the day individual tickets go on sale.

I will never tire of being able to dunk on the main board. May this well never run dry

I will never tire of being drunk on the main board. Hopefully I never run dry.

I don't know if we would like sober you. We barely tolerate drunk you

You and I have been on this train since the beginning. Pretty funny how we always have this created drama, but then everything pretty much always works out pretty great.

 

[Svechhammer]

Normally, I'd say something about taking off the tin foil hat, but man... this franchise seems to sometimes look to intentionally rile up the hockey community for no other reason than the lolz.

 

[AD Skinner]

Being pursued for a job doesn't necessarily mean you'll take that job? Man my worldview has been turned upside down

I mean you could teach a class in sports marketing with the off season(s) we've had. It's incredible! I do have to wonder if Tom Dundon doesn't get a little giddy every time he can twist that "non-traditional market" knife in the hockey cognoscenti's gut.

Here's to 2nd half of the season Mrazek showing up in October.

Ah thank God Dundon isn't going the Jerry Jones route.
