Why not? Ward only got a little over half a season to be the HC, what’s wrong with telling him we need to give him another year. If the plan was signing our interim HC to a two year deal and also having a deal in place with Sutter at the same time, only to can the one you just promised the HC position, then this organization isn’t going to give labeled as “employee-friendly”.
We were supposed to be good this season. At LEAST top 4. I don’t think we expected to be this bad, and management started to see that the core was the CORE problem. Which is why I feel they reached out to Sutter during the pitiful start to the season.
If we did reach out to him during the summer and just signed Ward anyway, then I feel terrible for doing Ward dirty.
