Hey Matt,
should be a good one tonight. Lot of emotion in that building this evening. Have to agree - Q was shafted by Bowman - who put together that stud UFA class that summer in Manning, Kunitz and Cam Ward and then expected Q to win. This was after the previous summer when he traded Panarin and Hammer...
Of course Hawks Mgt. professed that it was a playoff team - well we're still waiting...meanwhile the Cats have looked good - great offense and PP. Still need a dman or two and one would think Dale will add by the deadline - meantime Bob needs to start playing like his contract. If so Cats should go far this spring.

Hey DK,
I can’t wait, my friend.
Hey...I’m with you on the Q firing. While we don’t know what goes on behind closed doors, and it could be that both sides were ready to move on, I never liked the in-season firing. It was made worse to me by replacing him with a very inexperienced Colliton (who was setup to fail).
There were certainly some seriously strange moves made by Bowman around the time, too.
Hammer hurt the most.
I love how they’ve been playing lately though. Fast, loose and making it happen.
Should be a good one tonight!
