If nothing else Knoblauch (or someone else that's up-and-coming) will be poached by some other team and we'll get a draft pick out of it.
Erie's in 1st place this year so far too without McDavid.
WBS get spanked 5-0. Where is Jarry? injured?
You're saying this mug doesn't instill you with confidence?
He has the wholesome look of someone that isn't allowed 100ft of a children's playground.
They went 3-0-1 with Jay Leach sans those players.Granted, I haven't watched the games, but I'm guessing that losing both your goalies, 3 of your best forwards, and a coach you've had success with all at once would affect a team's performance.

I just find a 50-year-old who's never coached above ECHL the level (and with mediocre results to boot) to be a massively uninspiring choice.
I don't know why you wouldn't just go with Leach until the end of the season. I know he's only been coaching a year and a half, but Bylsma didn't have much more experience than that when he took over from Todd Richards, nor did Reirden when he took over from Bylsma. And it's not like Donatelli has coached that much himself.
I noticed they started DeSmith over Murray today and he got the win, but DeSmith only had 90 minutes in the ECHL this year so far? Was he hurt? He seems like a better goaltender and with more upside than Foster.
I was wondering why Foster was playing over DeSmith too.
I don't follow Wheeling much, so I wasn't really sure what was going on. Foster just seems like a warm body to me.
Murray wasn't even dressed for today's game. Hopefully nothing is wrong there.
