I have a Bill Peter's update....
My source advised that he went to the rink to negotiate his settlement. Apparently with an out-clause, it's not cut and dried.
This negotiation is the reason for the media speculation about the extension to opt out.
Peter's has two offers on the table from Canadian teams... They are positive one is Calgary and thinks Ottawa is the other
I'm guessing that Gulutzan firing is totally tied to Peter's picking Calgary. I just hope there's an option B if Peter's doesn't pick Calgary.
It was also noted that he wants this settled before heading to Denmark and coaching the WC.
There was some other personal info/reasons that I can't don't want to divulge, but this is a pretty legit source..
I forgot to mention, I guess this new owner is absolutely clueless about hockey and could be convinced into anything. I immediately started thinking about having the inside track with Peter's in the fold, how we could scoop up the good players they have. I guess a GM will be hired to make those moves but doesn't sound like he will find anyone to take the job. Especially with his comments about paying one.
