Hard to imagine that isn't coming, with statements similar to what Bowman said. One question is does anyone involved ever find their way into the NHL again?

Must be nice to be in the original 6 circle of protection It's a tricky situation. Do we know that they knew it happened 100% or that they knew about the allegations? Cause that's a huge difference. They are not judges, they are running a hockey team and if things were under investigations, they can't really do much other than keep things under wrap until there's a verdict and know for sure. If they knew 100% that it happened then obviously that's an easy one on how it should be handled Edited October 26, 2021 by SterioDesign Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Winning At All Costs, We're Going To Look The Other Way For Now And Let The Process Take Its Course" is not going to go over well...that's exponentially bad optics. I'm not sure how much press covers the Panthers, but I gotta think the questions will be relentless. Can't see Q staying for all that long, and he'll exit with the three-part statement: ...thankful for the opportunity that the Panthers gave me... ...don't want to become a distraction to this young and talented team... ...it was an honor to have coached the Panthers, and to have played and coached in the NHL...

SterioDesign Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 So Drouin accidentally dropped the news that Weber "basically retired" and was working with Bergevin in the scouting department. That's a big problem cause they didn't announce anything and Weber retiring is realllly fvcking up MTL and even more Nashville. Weber has five seasons remaining on his contract with an annual salary-cap hit of $7.857 million. Bergevin believes the NHL will allow the Canadiens to put Weber on long-term injured reserve, which would provide salary-cap relief from his contact. If Weber decides to retire because of his injuries, the Nashville Predators would have a “cap recapture” penalty of just over $4.9 million per season through 2025-26, which is when Weber’s contract expires. So that's like 24-25millions they'd have to dish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
