TOMapleLaughs Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Andddddd We have the newest GM of the Maple LeafsWouldn't shock me. Typical TO move to pretend success is transferable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyhee Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Bruins lose Benning, miss playoffs Canucks get Benning, make playoffs Coincidence? On the Bruins side I doubt Benning's influence as assistant GM would have been sufficient to have the Bruins drop out of the playoffs suddenly. Wow, I'm a little surprised, but maybe the Seguin trade and not re-signing Iggy (they defiantly could have used his 29 goals) pissed off the brass just enough! My understanding was that the Bruins wanted to sign Iginla but had cap problems that ruled it out, so if the Bruins are holding that against Chiarelli it is for being in the cap situation he was in that meant he couldn't re-sign Iginla, not making a choice to not re-sign him.

Guest Dasein Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Nice. Miss the playoffs 1 year and you take out your GM. Too bad they don't have let's say JB stepping up for them eh? Sounds like something we did a year ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SabreFan1 Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Bruins lose Benning, miss playoffs Canucks get Benning, make playoffsCoincidence? Yes. The Bruins players shot themselves in the foot. The players have nobody to blame but themselves. Firing Chiarelli is a dumb move by a newbie CEO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theminister Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Man...the NHL is a tough business. He's had a lot of success to not allow him a mulligan. Now I'm curious....he is still technically under contract, correct? Will a team be required to give up compensation to hire him as per the new rules?

Amish Rake Fighter Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Neely's going to run that team into the ground, he's too much of a hot head to be in charge. It looks like Boston's got their own version of Meddling Ed Snider in Jacobs, though, so this could have just as easily come from him. Either way, it's never a good thing when NHL ownership starts thinking they're "hockey guys". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theminister Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 The Seguin trade hate misses the fact that the team lacked depth, something they didn't even have enough of this year with Reilly Smith and Loui Eriksson. Their D needs an overhaul and Morrow will step in next year. They didn't even have cap space for Boychuck. They wouldn't have been better this tear for not making that trade IMO.

Nuxfanabroad Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 They'd better hope they can dump some heavy contracts. Trouble is, they're not the only ones. Soon they'll be doormats for the likes of TBay, CBJ, Flor & Buff. The cycle turns against them now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theminister Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 I don't think that applies after someone has been fired. I'm not sure if that's true. I know am NHL team can block a hiring because of an existing contract until it expires its term. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nux4lyfe Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 What a dumb knee-jerk move, Bostons done more good than bad in the past few seasons, 1 year off and they fire him...what a slap in the face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
