Around the League 2019-2024 Edition

You can't get out of a contract by treating someone so poorly that they quit. Brusso would have a pretty strong labour lawsuit to get paid out anyway.

I think the organization is just a fucking clownshow and doesn't know how not to be. Rutherford is used to being in markets with no media attention.
Aquilini is truly a piece of egocentric shit.
 
He won’t quit, despite all the BS

The game is too much fun once the puck drops
Plus I'm sure he's getting support of players, staff etc behind the scenes. By all accounts BB is a decent guy, not a Torts type, and this is just mind boggling.

Why would anyone want to take over as head coach after the previous one gets treated this way?
 
Because our medical staff is overseen by Dr. Mulder, a relic of the past who doesn't seem to understand concussions. How much actual impact he has on the every day medical events in the organization, or whether he's there mostly to overview (or to be a figurehead, in a way), I don't think we'll ever know. But whenever there's a very serious injury at the Bell Center, they always bring him on the ice to take a look.

In recent years, there's been a bunch of times when players on the Habs got hit in the head, got up on wobbly legs, and were allowed to return to get game, only for the team to announce the next day that the player has a concussion. "Well, the player showed no signs of a concussion last night and said he was fine"
 
Probably let him try and nail a few scoring bonuses before shutting him down for the late-season tank.
 
what am i missing here? I don't see anything bad going back a while.
i mean nothing that big, he's just a trumper/canada proud guy.

mostly an aside to the circus around his hiring/the bruce boudreau situation. and i guess there was the whole gambling ring thing.
