Ken King wasn't a hockey person. He was a businessman for the organization; and a good one at that. One thing from that presser yesterday that I did think was the King likely would've handle Bean's role better. Man knew how to talk in front of mics. Also miss how engaging with the fans he was.
Ken King was great. I think what i'm trying to connect here is without the GM, you are now in direct contact with Murray Edwards. I find this accountant and his role strange in that I don't see Pittsburgh or other teams trotting out the accountants. And again, I don't mean offence to accountants
