Good, although I'm sure I'm going to hate the phrases that are going to be said like "in hindsight we could have and should have done better" and "to avoid being a distraction to the team, it's in the organizations best interest that I resign"

There will be little real accountability, but something is better than nothing. And at least everyone now knows what Bowman and his ilk are like.

Rumour that Bowman is out too.

No Bowman at the presser. Just Rocky Wirtz and the investigator.

If the team came out gangbuster to start the season, they would probably be still doing their best to ignore everything. Having a poor start just gives them fuel to make changes and they can now try to claim some kind of high ground.

Liars. Claiming to have no knowledge of sexual assault allegations until recently.

Every single one of these people should be banned from the NHL.

Be interesting to see the dominoes re: Winnipeg and Florida. Do they have to make a move? Do they have a choice?

I think they should. Similar to the Flames having to deal with Peters. It didn't matter that it occurred with a different organization, it was still the right thing to do.

If Flames personnel were involved in this and the Flames didn't act, I would be disgusted.

With what happened to Peters and Gruden I can see all heads rolling here. This is very severe and I can’t see how any of these guys survive.

There it is Bowman resigns. I wonder if Chevy and Quenville will be next?

Agreed. I would hope to have resignations from them both today.

I hope every one of these pathetic enablers gets absolutely charred to a crisp. Quennville included.

Make an example of them all so that people will be less likely to allow a perverted sexual deviant to run rampant in their organization in the future.

It will be a true rest of their team characters. Especially given both guys, especially Q, have been successful for their teams. But the story being told is that those two guys pushed to keep things quiet because of the cup run.

Any executive with the team in 2010 is no longer with the organization

Cleaning house. Makes sense. This probably also causes them to consider/push towards a rebrand. They were already facing some pressure, I’m sure.
