I will be stunned if he's still here by the time I log in Monday morning.why does media even ask him about his Cousin Dave
Dreger "[Nonis] going about his business, but if he gets fired with 3 years left he won't look back & wish he could have done more..."
Dreger "...Of course he knows could have done more but he wasn't able to for a variety of reasons. Understands business better than anybody"
Dreger "Guys like that [Nonis] are hired quickly"
I will be stunned if he's still here by the time I log in Monday morning.
Nonis. Dreger still gets some trade rumours now and then so he serves some purpose.Do you mean Nonis, Dreger, or JStew ?
And so it begins...

Surprised Spott was let go. I heard a lot of players say a lot of good things about him.
But maybe that was a bad thing...
Bingo.I feel the same way about a lot of the Flyers players backing Craig Berube - it's not a good sign
Maybe the players need to go too

He was on thin ice once he called Phil Kessel fat...

They have at most 1.5 useful pieces on the blue line and the rest needs to be built from scratch (and for everyone's sake Phaneuf needs to be moved) but they have offensive pieces that I wouldn't hate to keep around. Having a top six in two years that consists of Kessel, Strome, Nylander, Kadri, JVR and whoever (Connor Brown?) would be fine by me, but I'd be just as fine if they moved one of Kessel or JVR for picks/prospects.Will a true rebuild will begin now?
