He said, the Bruins staff called him "Weisfraud".
He also had said Feaster went behind Dudley's back in Tampa and went straight to ownership and was telling ownership in Tampa that he is much better than Dudley and basically talked ownership into firing Dudley and hiring him.
Feaster was hired here in July of 2010. Darryl Sutter was fired in December of 2010. I wonder if history repeated itself.
I don't think either of these guys are well liked. I think that McGuire interview on 1040 is pretty accurate.

Well if what you're saying is true, then there's no way Benning is hiring Weisbrod since Benning would also know him as "Weisfraud?" What doesn't make sense is that Weisbrod was hired after Chiarelli was hired and he was promoted under his watch. I suppose if this story is true the hiring and promotion was all Neely?
As for Feaster, he clearly wanted the GM job and didn't respect Dudley all that much.
