In regards to my prediction about Sutter moving over to management or POHO, I don't have any inside info other than some basic conversations with people who are closer to the organization. Speculation as nobody knows exactly what will happen but a plausible theory. Perhaps bringing in a Mike Futa or a Dean Lombardi on

Someone brought it up on Overtime on 960 last night and used the phrase "GM light" to describe a potential position. I don't think Sutter as a full on GM would make ANY fan happy and that is a risk I don't think ownership will take but Edwards has a history of NOT paying people to not work for him. He is very opposed to having players bought out, people fired with term left on their contract etc. The ownership has no problem spending to the cap but is very opposed to paying dollars to people who aren't working for them.

Do I see a scenario where Sutter and or Edwards eat the reported (Sportsnet Eric Francis) $4 million a year deal? Doubtful. I could see him moving to a POHO position.

My biggest concern with ownership, management and coaching is that there is very little cohesion or proper planning or being on the same page. The organization doesn't seem to have a specific course of action.

Regardless, could be interesting but for the fans who are clamoring for major changes, earth shattering moves, I think we might be disappointed.
