Who could possibly be surprised by this? He cost the team a first round pick. Nothing was more expected than a firing.

 

[L'Aveuglette]

So not only are we being stripped of a first rounder, we are being stripped of one of the best GMs this........oh screw it, I can't even finish that joke.

Do you think Melnyk would have fired him for this had it come to light under his watch?

Melnyk would have sued every single person in the greater Las Vegas area, and neighbouring states, for $100B.

If he managed to survive that long he probably would've forgotten who Dorion was.

Andlauer and now his hand picked POHO Staios are in this for the long haul, and as you logically point out they’re in no rush to severely rock the boat as a minority of fans want them to do, as you point out.

At this time, the pickings are slim when it comes to selecting a new GM or new Head Coach…. MA and SS both know there will be a larger pool to select from in the off-season even if the Senators make the playoffs.

I suspect both MA and SS are looking at the season as their due diligence and unless there is a complete collapse on the ice and the Sens are well out of reach of a playoff spot by December, I think they ride out the season with both PD and DJS and watch how things transpire with the challenges ( some self inflicted) before them and how they either get past them, or can’t get out from under them.

I understand how every fan desires the perfect coach and GM for their team, but that is a fantasy, and is never going to happen….. some fans, a minority, desire a quick fix, instant gratification because they don’t like the current GM or Head coach…. The owner and the POHO are looking down the road, and know they will eventually replace the both of them at some point, it’s how the business of the NHL works, and quick knee jerk decisions Do not serve the long term plans well.

Very true. The bar is set incredibly low.

Get up on that wall of shame with Melnyk. Good riddance to that era of lameness.
