Right, but so what?
I dunno, I just feel like it's a pointless exercise. Ward is not the guy I would have chosen, but I have no idea whether the guy I would have chosen was even interested in an interview. Nobody does. So I find it strange that people make up a scenario they believe could be true, and then get mad at that scenario. You're literally just making yourself mad over nothing at that point.
Would people be equally upset if Treliving called Boudreau, Gallant, and Laviolette and was told by all three that they weren't interested? Or maybe one of them was, but the salary was too high for our budget?
That's all. It just seems like people need to imagine a version of events so they can be mad at the result, which feels crazy. Same goes for the opposite, if anyone has decided the scenarios above are true to make them feel good about this.
