Like this guy has got to be the head of the hockey operations department.
I don't care if he's the president, and I don't care if they have a president of hockey ops and a GM.
I don't have a problem with that.
But I just don't understand a rookie GM president.
And even Chica, to me, is a relatively rookie GM.
He was in Arizona.
I mean, they hardly won a game in the number of years he was there.
And, you know, he got suspended by the league.
He lost his first and second round pick.
I mean, this is the Toronto Maple Leafs.
What is going on here?
I'm sorry.
You know, I didn't in the hockey ops department, but I did in the business side where, you know, the Cleveland Browns, you know, and the Cleveland Indians and the Cincinnati Reds were after our top people in our marketing and in our ticket sales.
But, I mean, if I had a... You know, we were a relatively... We were a new expansion franchise, so the guys were relatively inexperienced, but...
You promote guys any which way you can.
If a guy can get ahead and get a better job, like White has been in Dallas for a long time under Jimmy Nill.
I understand that.
I'm still shocked that a guy like Mark Hunter, with all he's done,
All he's done in major junior and for a short time in pro that his name doesn't even get mentioned.
And he's one of the good hockey people in North America.
