Agree, but if that is Gary’s statement above, he is already giving himself an out on not dropping the ban hammer on chev and q

I think that conversation is going to go something like this, you really should resign, because the NHL is not in the making teams firing their employee business.

It’ll be slap on the wrist. Up to the owners, doubt the owners bend and they will skate through…

I don't see how him and Chev keep their jobs. Both said they had no knowledge but the report says otherwise.

I get it, they were in a Cup run. But if you're a coach and one of your players comes forward with an allegation like that and you don't make sure it's being addressed properly...you still have a responsibility IMO.

I wonder how much Q knew, seems like he would’ve heard, somehow.
Idk if he knew any real of the real details, he might have been told of “an incident”. I have read little on it so far, but it seems the man with the details of the events made his report to the bigwigs, and then left. Q was called into the meeting afterwards, maybe he didn’t know the real allegations at the time. The meeting ended as I quoted in my original comment. Then Aldrich was fired after the playoff run.
I don’t really know what to think without knowing how much Q really knew. It’s a wide swing between my two possible opinions.

I wouldn't take that bet. There's no way the Florida owner terminates the 6 - 0 Florida Panther coach. If he was 0 - 6, probably.

Q and the Panthers have probably hired a PR firm as I type this coming up with their spin on the situation. It was 11 years ago, I was focused solely on going to the Stanley Cup finals, I left it to senior management to handle, blah, blah, blah.

Silencio, for now...until Bettman meets with Q
Statement from the Panthers, which has been added to the (David Dwork) story:
"At this time, Commissioner Gary Bettman has indicated that he will be meeting with Joel Quenneville to discuss the events highlighted in the Jenner & Block October 2021 report. Accordingly, we have no comment."

Happy to be here. Frank Servelli apparently saying a deal is close with Vegas for Jackie Boy. Prolly won’t happen as we’ve heard it before.

Based upon what you posted it seems like it’s just going to come out of left field when it finally goes down

How can the only thing people have talked about for over a year come from out of left field?

If it has anything to do with Diliberatore and Dorofeyev, that won't get it.

With all due respect. This isn’t just a hockey problem. It’s a world problem. Drs are not drs anymore. They are pill pushers.

It’s why there are so many lawsuits happening now and more are to come.

There are so many drugs that should not be approved by the FDA but are and you are going to see a giant shift in this soon.
