I’d hope Snow continues. Also didn’t one of the media folks say that Pascal will continue as AGM? I guess we will find out at noon

I have no doubt. Over the years on different radio shows I've heard him talk about the "hard part" of the business, but he gets it. Players get it. It's just business, and they are in the business of winning. Anyone who has played hockey up to junior level would have experience with getting cut/traded.

			Pascall. His last name has a double-L. 
 
Unless you're talking about Pascal's Theorem. 
 
Maybe CP should have an auto-name-checker so that we get the players' and managements' names correctly spelled? ((Kidding....)

He has a lot of roster moves to make with the big glut of free agents upcoming. 
 
I think he is going to do great things for us.

Coach is important. But Conroy has a bunch players on short contracts - he cannot screw up the asset MGT side.
