Interesting. Comcast has complete control now.

Good luck.

 

[Striiker]

So basically Scott has more influence now? No middle man.

 

[deadhead]

No, Fletcher has more influence now, he's no longer going to be filtered through Holmgren, he reports directly to Scott.

Guys this is a great day. I have been waiting for this forever.

Holmgren is out.

The jury is out on Scott, and Fletch running things. However we got what we wanted Holmgren out.

Holmgren can't be trusted but Scott is even worse.

It's fletchs world. Were just living in it.

I'm now convinced it was Fletch who passed twice on Caufield.

I'm pretty sure this means Fletcher has more power, Homer has less, and Scott has the same as before.

But honestly who the hell knows.

How did he get to be chairman, what moron at comcast appointed him as the GOV. Roberts?

I just hope, Scott stays away and lets fletch be ill be fine.

I just hope Scott isn't James Dolan

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Fire Scott.

 

[Stizzle]

Dave Scott continues to consolidate power. His allegiance is to Comcast. Not hockey. Never forget this.

 

[GKJ]

One of the things that got Hextall in hot water was that he was deviating from that kind of mentality and trying to seperate the old boys hanging around the organization from doing business. That went directly against an ethos Snider presided over the team with, and I know at the time Elliotte Friedman said that Holmgren wasn't getting the respect that was expected from below him.

 

[Redpath]

The fear of Dave Scott goes to show how many people took Ed Snider for granted

 

[deadhead]

Scott is a corporate guy, he'll let the hockey guys run things, he's more focused on the bottom line, which in this case isn't about cost cutting but synergies with Comcast's television products.

This suggests Fletcher was under double secret probation and passed, and now has total control on the hockey side.

 

[GKJ]

I'm pretty sure this means Fletcher has more power, Homer has less, and Scott has the same as before.

But honestly who the hell knows.

Wonder if Dean Lombardi fits in somewhere new, because he declined consideration for the job in Ottawa.

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

This is like when the Emperor promoted Tarkin to Grand Moff.

 

[deadhead]

That just means Lombardi is sane.

 

[FlyerNutter]

Scott has more power it seems.

It’s annoying to somehow always be low key reminded of how this guy wants to be in the limelight.

Despise that POS.

“Advisor to Dave Scott”. Advise him to crawl back into his hole.

 

[Beef Invictus]

I don't like this.

 

[Ghosts Beer]

Makes more logical sense. Fletcher should be reporting directly to Scott, & Holmgren shouldn’t have any sway over Fletcher (perceived or not) in hockey decisions.

 

[Rich Nixon]

Yes but where does Bobby Clarke fit in?

 

[FlyerNutter]

I don't like this.

I hate Holmgren, but why the f*** does Dave Scott need an advisor to anything.

He’s a meddler. Pure and simple.

 

[hatcher]

Fletcher has all say in hockey ops.
