Sens hire Jim Little as CEO and now he's fired...

[Dingle]

The Sens seem to go through executives quicker than Melnyk goes through gambling money.

Have you guys kept track? ...Between, chief executive, chief operating, chief marketing, chief financial.. We are running out of Chief's.

Over, under on him
< 1 year
1 to 2 years
2 to 3 years
>3 years

I say 2 years less a few months.

I say that he is gone before next season begins.

My first thought after seeing his picture

 

[2CHAINZ]

Too Little too late

 

[Do Make Say Think]

Not a clue who he is.

Hopefully he lasts longer than whatshisname that left.

A former Shaw executive isn't very encouraging: crappy businesses don't tend to have good execs.

His instructions to Dorion "So if you could go ahead and draft that Lafreniere guy, that would be great."

Dorion better get that cover sheet on his TPS reports.

Dorion better get that cover sheet on his TPS reports.

Maybe he didn't get the memo?

 

[BonHoonLayneCornell]

He said Melnyk has made re-establishing "a strong, positive relationship with this community" a clear priority.

How about you suggest he get the f*** out of town and spare us all the misery instead.

I wanted to be excited about this hire and then I saw this picture of Jim Little and thought 'no man that matched that tartan jacket, with that striped shirt, with that polka dot tie should be trusted with anything of any importance'.

Live from Dunder-Mifllin.

I predict he’ll be here as long as Melnyk is here. I bet the nhl helped with this

 

[Spartachat]

Is he looking for a new job yet?

Rebuilding fan relations is Impossible, it’s not like we got a burger without pickles and returned it. We got served a shit sandwich and the owner said if you don’t like shit sandwiches some other town will and I’ll go there and make them shit sandwiches and they’ll like it because what I do is serve shit sandwiches and that’s what you’re going to get, because shit fans eat shit sandwiches. This is a summary of the owner-fan relationship this last decade.

lipstick on the pig, but we will all know it’s still a pig.

That coat is literally a red flag.

 

[Mark Stones Spleen]

Did we ask Shaw communications to retain any of his salary?

 

[FolignoQuantumLeap]

I suppose the XploreNet CEO was unavailable.

I thought of this guy when i saw this picture.

Seriously, there’s only 1 thing that will rebuild fan relations. Until that 1 thing happens this team is doomed to mediocrity.

 

[Stylizer1]

I wonder what bundles fans are going to get stuck with now?

I disagree. Each positive move rebuilds a tiny piece of the relationship. There are definitely some who will never be won back but most fans fans can and new ones can be made. Nothing beats hope and then winning. It’s a long road back but not impossible.

 

[Filatov2Kovalev2Bonk]

I mean, this seems like a step back for Mr. Little but if we can dump Boro at the deadline it's alrleady a step in the right direction.
Seriously though, he has literally nothing to work with but hopefully he has a way to center himself because Uncle Euge is going to be a loudmouthed gong show as usual and Mr. Little will have to clean up the messes.

Not really sure that this is a "positive move", most organizations have CEOs, they don't leave the position vacant for as long as this one has been.

A pig is bacon. I like bacon.

So we've got a public relations guy now. I've always considered PR guys to be professional liars. It doesn't change anything.
