Uhhhh... I am Listening to a podcast from Down Goes Brown (the biscuits podcast). According to him, a source close to the Isles indicated that just before Wang lost majority control, he gave Snow a 10 YEAR CONTRACT EXTENSION FOR ALMOST $25M, ON TOP OF THE THREE YEARS HE STILL HAD ON HIS DEAL AS A WAY TO PROTECT SNOW FROM BEING FIRED!!! I hope to God that this is completely untrue. If it's not, you can shoot me dead now, because I can't wait another 13 years for Snow to disappear. Anyone else hear this?

I'm sure the owners can still fire him. If that's true, which I sort of doubt, I'm curious if they would have to pay it, or just terminate the contract.

Of course, but for Weight, the assistant GM, to not know that there was at least one coach being interviewed was either ignorant/naïve on Weights' part or deceptive on Snows' part.

Fair point. Btw, I never quite understood Weight being both an assistant coach AND an assistant GM. Seemed unusual to me. Don't know about other teams....

Yeah, I agree. It sort of smacks of 'Good Ol' Boy network'. I think maybe it's just a way to get another paycheck. Like the movies. You get paid to be the director, another check for being the producer, another one for acting, and so on. Not really sure how it works.

Anything's possible, but if I were the lawyer for new ownership during the contract negotiations (to buy the Isles), I would have made sure that Wang couldn't impair the asset being purchased (i.e., the Islanders) by pulling that sort of crap.

I find this hard to believe. Weren't L&M involved before they took majority control? I don't think they would have agreed to this.

If it is true then L&M should get all medieval on Wang. They should wipe out Wang and all his family so his bloodline is gone. Then salt his lands so nothing will grow for one hundred years. Finally all references to Wang will be stricken from the records as if he never existed. But that's just my opinion.

I would think L&M would have put a stop to this? If Garth does not get fired, this will come up again. Jimmy, your ideas about what they should do to Wang was vicious, cruel, and totally unnecessary. I loved it.

You're wrong about that part. IF he did do that then it's very necessary.

Im sorry, I understand he's having a good season and 1/4 or 1/2 but he's a journeyman backup, unless he turns into Dubynk.....

The fact that Snow was Wang's " Piss Boy " I totally believe this to be true. That said L and M paid 500 million dollars for this poop show and lost about a million in estimated worth of the team already. I would think they have no problem firing Snows ass and paying him 2.5 million per year if and when they feel the time is right. Having the moron make trades and decisions like he made last summer, causes damage that costs them and the team a hell of a lot more than 2.5 million / year imho.
