And I agree, don't know how he can be credited for the Boston win, with the core that was already established before he got there. For the member of management that "nobody knows", there sure is a lot of hype

IIRC, he left Orlando because he wanted to work in hockey long term, not basketball.
Been a couple days, and I am still not too pleased with what's transpired. Especially reading the post about why Burke let go of Weisbrod.
Maybe Weisbrods vision of how to build a hockey team is bunk, but as a fan, I was all settled in and ready to be patient and let him and Feaster try.
If in a couple years we have a team full of big tough dummies that hit everything that wears a different coloured jersey and moves, but can't play a smart, skilled, puck possession game I will be more disappointed than ever in this organization.
