You don't keep the AGM around after you fire the GM, unless you're going to promote from within. The new GM will pick his own assistant if he wants one. Also, if Weisbrod is the hockey mind behind Feaster, and Burke didn't like the results, then it's another reason for Weisbrod to go.
So I don't mind really. Feaster was getting average results, and we need better than that. His trades especially have been bad.
I think this is not a bad time for a new GM to come in, so we might actually be an attractive spot. Expectations are as low as they can be for a Canadian team, there's finally some prospects in the system, basicly no untouchable veterans on the team except maybe Gio... Should be a good place for an ambitious GM... Unless you count working under Burke as a problem.
That said, I have very little faith in us bringing in a guy that's any better than Feaster. I generally have not liked our hirings.
