Senators fire new CEO after 2 months...team dumpster fire

[matter2003]

If you think the Sabres are bad...the Sens continue to show they are simply a tire fire...

The new CEO was hired after an extensive search so he could lead the team for the next decade according to the Sens owners but he lasted only 2 months haha

They beat us in 3 of the 4 games we've played them this season. Just throwing that out there.

And Ottawa might have the Top 2-4 picks in the 2020 NHL Draft.

San Jose might be the only team in worse shape then the Buffalo Sabres at the moment.

And they have a ton of picks in rounds 1 and 2 this year. I have no doubt they will finish ahead of Buffalo next year.

And look at their AHL team that is the best in the league, then note they aren't being carried by a bunch of Quadruple A/AHL/Minor League for life guys but actual honest to God legit NHL prospects.

From what it sounds like, someone got some dirt on him, or he said/did something recently that got him canned.

Usually when they say things like 'conduct inconsistent with the core values of the team and league' he's either been caught saying something offensive about woman/minorities/sexual orientations/etc, done something sexual to someone, or has a drug/alcohol problem. Although the last one they usually try to help you with first.

Does it matter tho?  As soon as they hit their second contract they will get traded because the owner won't pay them

I'm sure the language referenced as a reason for the termination jibes nicely with language contained in all NHL employment contracts.  I.E., the team is covering their tracks and making clear they had cause to terminate the K. 

I agree, it is likely one of the things you referenced.  He's a bigot, sexual abuser, or alcoholic/addict of some type.  Something like that.  If I had to guess knowing nothing about it, I'll say he's an alcoholic!  LOL.  Why?  Just going by the photo of him in the referenced article.  Looks like he's got a lot of rough mileage on that chassis.

But I was just told Ottawa is a team doing things the right way...

And there's the root of the matter.  No matter how poorly people thing of Terry and Kim, they're no Eugene Melnyk.

Belleville is great with a lot of young talent...the Senators have a bright future if they just stay out of their own way.

Tkachuk, White, Balcers, Hawryluk, Brown, Tierney, Chabot, Jaros, Wolanin, Brannstrom, Gustavsson, Hogberg, Norris, Brown, Gruden, Formenton, Batherson, Abramov, etc.

They have a lot of young talent.

Melnyk also fast tracked a liver transplant for himself a few years back, so his “buddies” are probably drinkers.

Ok, and we have Eichel, Reinhart, Dahlin, Cozens, and Oloffson...plus a few more I am not thinking of....so what?

Holy Cow!

 

I'd have to fire every truck driver, maintenance person and mechanic that I ever had work for me if all it takes is a disagreement and a some swearing.

Heck, that's how every morning started!

You sure? I could swear we lost to them...or maybe it just feels like it.

That lost point came in a shootout loss

Wakes up and checks notes.  Terry's Sabres are still the biggest dumpster fire.  Back to sleep.

Nothing like a good schadenfreude thread to help ease the sting of another bum season.

There is no way it was just the profanity, or even majority profanity.  There had to be some world class bad behavior on that call.  I'd love to have been listening in.  Maximum entertainment value.
