That would be because the new GM would not have his own coach? If Hartley was a top choice of any of the new GMs over the last 7 years other than his non-hockey buddy from Hershey. He would have been coaching somewhere in the NHL or at least affiliated with some NHL organization.
Do you think that if and when Burke decides that he should be GM he won't want his own coach? and that Hartley would be his first choice?
well I will hedge my comment... maybe Burke will re-hire Feaster as GM and then Hartley stays.
