Proposal: Fire Pierre Dorion... Unless?

[GermanSpitfire]

I think its time for him to go.
Other than taking over Bryan Murray’s team, he has missed the playoffs every single season and finished bottom 10.

This Hamonic deal proves Ottawa’s management has no idea how to build a winning team.

Dorion needs to be fired

He should have been fired ages ago. A clown who has no idea what he’s doing. It’s embarrassing how pathetic he is.

 

[cudi]

Dorion* but agreed.

He wont be GM of this team the next time they make the playoffs and the longer he stays, the longer we'll toil at the bottom of the standings.

I mean this should have happened years ago. That's why there is absolutely no hope. Why I'm indifferent and don't care.

 

[Micklebot]

I'm no fan of Dorion, but I just see McGuire taking his role and being just as bad.

 

[Adele Dazeem]

Bring on McGuire.

 

[Gil Gunderson]

10 mill tied up in bottom pairing d-men as a budget team. For some of the staunch Dorion enthusiasts here, please at least try to rationalize this.

I'd say there's no hope because the problem is even higher up. If someone is fine keeping Dorion in place so far they'd probably bring in someone equally incompetent to replace him.

Assen na yo!

Been counting the days since about November 2017

 

[Ouroboros]

Tough situation. I don't want the grifter off TV as the GM either.

 

[Joeyjoejoe]

I would drink my own piss if he gets fired this year.

 

[Satoru Gojo]

Should have been like 4 years ago now

 

[TheDebater]

You know things are really bad when the final straw for most people is trading a 3rd round pick for Hamonic.....

 

[Masked]

I wonder if the posters who say we should be packing the building will show up in this thread.

Assen na yo!

 

[Philadelphia Collins]

After his team went full-on “I’m smarter than everybody else” with the 2022 draft and it all blew up in their faces I’ve been done with the whole front office. The pro scouting has been laughable for decades

Who is paying attention? Who provides Melnyk with trade evals?

Yes, adding over 3 mil to your bottom pairing and failing to get anything done because of a limited budget in the off-season is a massive straw.

 

[slamigo]

If anyone here honestly believes that any other NHL team would hire Dorion as GM, you are deluded. He’d be lucky to get a job as a scout (which is what he is).

Dorion needs to be fired

ottawa was 5 wins away from winning the Stanley Cup his 1st season when Chris Kunitz scored the game 7 winner in double OT in 2017 .

My point I guess is that the trade deadline has not passed and alot can change between now and then, in terms of salary heading out.

 

[Neil Patrick Harris]

When Dorion finally gets fired, I think I'll celebrate with some Gabriels Pizza

 

[Butchy Dakkar]

I find it so strange that we have such a cheap owner that has held onto a GM that can’t maximize value from the rope he is given. So many head scratchers that have added up to 10s of millions that needed to have impact. We’ve had bed luck, sure, but results are speaking for themselves, and we should have an amazing prospect pool (and a handful of high picks on the books that have been squandered).

Still a fan. But man, feels like we need a new conductor, or someone to hold PD accountable.

I don’t see how anything besides MDZ and Zaitsev getting shipped out would make this move even remotely decent.

That was a group project that Dorian took credit for.

how has he done since he inherited that team? He gets some credit as AMG, but he wasnt the architect of that team.
