not even entirely up to him whether he's ever allowed back in the future, would suggest that Chevy's position as a GM isn't tenable.
I honestly do see a difference between the two. My understanding of Cheveldayoff's role as AGM was essentially as a cap analyst. I think he should have spoken up against the course of action that they took, but I can also understand how someone in that position would come to the conclusion that he has nothing to do with coaching or personnel decisions, or player management besides salaries. I'm not even sure why he was in the meeting.
I don't have a problem with him being out in Winnipeg, I just didn't think this reflected nearly as badly on him as on Quenneville.
