Not gonna lie. I laughed at that response.
Eh, not quite. At 35 I'm technically what you could call a Millennial, but we don't share the typical Millennial mindset. Many say anyone born from 79-85 are Xennials. Hybrid Gen X'ers and Millennials. I'm closer to a Gen X mindset, though. As are most of us pre-1985.
I've heard about it but I don't buy it. You don't hear about some hybrid Boomer/GenX'er pseudo-generation from years past...or a hybrid pre-boomer/Boomer hybrid.I'm a 1980 and I've heard about this Xennial thing. The first time I went on the internet was in high school so I had that beautiful tech free childhood followed by parents screaming at me to get off the internet because I was tying up the phone line.

Haha that was me in middle school.I'm a 1980 and I've heard about this Xennial thing. The first time I went on the internet was in high school so I had that beautiful tech free childhood followed by parents screaming at me to get off the internet because I was tying up the phone line.
Couple reasons I heard why McD might've been fired. Wanting to keep Bowman beyond this year, Panarin trade, Q firing not working out...Apparently McD had no sense his job was in jeopardy and he still had 3 years left on his deal so it wasnt for financial reasons as he'll be paid in full...so for the crowd that thinks he wasn't behind Bowman and now Stan will have free reign, it might've been the opposite...Bowman might end up fired as well after Danny Wirtz hires a new president...sounds like he did not want to fire Stan and JC just yet and Rocky wants changes so he's going to find a president that will make them...hopefully its wrong, imagine a world where they fire Stan and hire Eddie O to be team president...brutal scenario
Ya, I think McD had Stan’s back too. As Zawaski pointed out, Stan is not one to stand up to a guy like McD and it’s unreasonable to think McD would want a guy who would challenge him.
I’d put my money on this move meaning the Bowman-era is nearing its end.

There’s nothing more telling that a coach or GM is on the hot seat than ownership issuing a vote of confide. It’s media speak. White noise.But then why reassure everyone of their job security in the media just weeks before cleaning the whole house?
I know media talk yada yada but you still don't commit yourself that precisely and fully if you think it's a actually an open question.

This. Rocky did the hard part. Will obviously give the new Prez free-reign.Couple reasons I heard why McD might've been fired.

Sounds like the success got to McCub's head. I know nobody is going to come out and say it, but I'd imagine Seabrook's contract is his handiwork as well.Zawaski said on today’s podcast that he got confirmation from multiple sources that Al MacIssac was the middle man between Bowman and McD.
“Stan would go to Al MacIssac and say ‘Al, this is what I’m thinking, this is what I’d like to do.’ And Al MacIssac would say, ‘Eh, I don’t know if John would love that idea. Nah, think of something else.’ And not even pass the idea along. Sometimes he would pass it along.”
f*** this, if he’s right on this I sure hope the Wirtz’ are looking for someone to clean house of all McD’s minions

McCub is turning out to be exactly what a few of us have said he was...
Kind of worse. Not only did he directly meddle, but he apparently set up a system with MacIssac to essentially control everything Stan did. If Stan had to ask MacIssac for permission all the time, that means Stan was essentially powerless.
Apparently MacIssac had the power to kill things on the spot by just saying “John wouldn’t like that”
Stan when McD got fired:Yep.
I think this is why Stan still has a job and likely the confidence of the Wirtz family.
Stan when McD got fired:
Nah. Chia isn't running the Oil anymore.If Stan could get Dylan Strome while being shackled, imagine what he can do now that he's free...
McDavid for Seabs is just around the corner boys!
I'm sure all the bad moves were McD, all the good ones were Bowman. Yup.Sounds like the success got to McCub's head. I know nobody is going to come out and say it, but I'd imagine Seabrook's contract is his handiwork as well.
