Sharpshooter Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 What the fuck? I just stepped out for lunch and now this happens?! Go out again. Maybe Quinn will be fired then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morphinity 2.0 Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 Love Drury, makes sense he turned down the Pens job this year I'm a fan of Drury. But this seems kind of sudden and knee-jerk. It was clear he was the heir apparent, but I didn't think it would be today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keirik Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 It’ll probably be Messier with Drury as gm. While there isn’t much experience there with Mess obviously, at LEAST you know the Drury Mess combo will address leadership and toughness. We’ve seen how hoarding underachieving first founders has worked. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunny Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 Holy shit. I never understood how John Davidson went from a colour commentator to a President of a half billion dollar company anyways, but I don't blame either he or Gorton for distancing themselves from that statement, as I found the statement utterly embarrassing. Obviously, so did they. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slobberknocker Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 speechless about the front office. i bet dollars to donuts dolan doesnt know who george parros is or what he does. sucks to see JD gone. i know we need toughness and it looked to me like jd was addressing that in the last draft. DOLAN is a BIG BAG OF SHIT and nothing more than a member of the lucky sperm club. i dont wish death on many but him and Deblowsio are on the top of my list.

Agreed. I still don’t understand firing JD. Getting rid of Gorton is one thing and Drury may have slotted in as GM nicely but why JD? Only guess is was a if you fire him you may as well fire me too situation.

BrooksBurner Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 I'm shocked, and I don't believe the reports saying it was merely coincidental with the letter. I think the team needed a couple of moves this offseason, but they were on the right path. Now I'm just confused and my confidence in the direction this team will go is completely shaken.

Lord Al Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 TSN Edmonton:Dolan talks to alot of people and its not hard to imagine that Gretzky ,Mark Messier and Glenn Sather also had his ear regarding this move.. Sather is still employed by the Rangers and as a senior advisor and alternate governor.

This is the thing I don't get. Gorton, all things considered, has done a tremendous job with the rebuild. Sure, some luck involved and a few small shots in the foot, but he's put together one of the most impressive collections of young talent the organization has seen in almost 50 years - possibly in the history of the franchise. He did it in under three years, no less! It's just nuts to can him now. It makes no sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karan Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 If this was about "underperforming", a little puzzled as to why they make this move now instead of in a week after the end of the regular season. A little pointless to draw attention to an already tense situation with the club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
