yea some kind of ISM
didn't research the exact word for it, but i know guys like you exist and will correct it even though you fully understood the essence of the post
they are buddies
best hire available as per experience would have been Quenneville and he WAS available after the INTERIM job given to WD - i mean isn't that the ****ing purpose of an INTERIM... if he truly was an INTERIM to begin with, that's debatable
but that's definately the angle he sold to the fans, therefore an INTERIM can last a week or a year
now, you're going to say: Joel Quenneville needed time to reassess and would never join a team mid-season, that's speculative, the thing i need to know (that none of us know unless one of us sleeps with Rob Blake), HAS HE EVER PICKED UP THE PHONE AND SAY "HEY! JOEL WHAT'S UP?!
you don't know
i don't know
but he never mentioned it, which probably means more likely NO than YES!
further... Alain Vigneault is available and has had way more success than McLellan can fake on his CV
in closing, this is a pure NEPOTISM move at its best
(now correct me)
