I don't think Boucher or DJ were necessarily his picks, at least not entirely.Should Pierre really get to pick another one?

I think Boudreau was the clear choice in 2016 but Minnesota offered him that extra year/money that Melnyk didn't. DJ could have also been a budget hire.what do you mean by that?

Probably that budget played into the choices,what do you mean by that?
I don't know DJ Smith's salary; however, I doubt that it is in the top 50% for coaches. More likely in the last 5 of the league making it definitely a "low budget hire".I think Boudreau was the clear choice in 2016 but Minnesota offered him that extra year/money that Melnyk didn't.

If he was gone, Dorion would have fired him by now. To me that says he wants to keep them, but Dorion doesn't want to go on record saying DJ will be the coach next year, incase new ownership says no.Oh he gone then.
Maybe. Or maybe Dorion wants to fire him but wants to ok it with new ownership to tack on paying out DJ in addition to hiring a new coach.If he was gone, Dorion would have fired him by now.

Pierre also said DJ was a great coach for development on a recent podcast.
Sounds like Pierre understands DJ was a budget hire and now he can get a guy to kick the team in the ass especially since Pierre himself will have a really short leash.
Prolly. Hope he would leave that decision up to his POHO and GM though.On TSN Dregwr just said one of the three bidders remaining is interested in bringing in Patrick Roy. My guess is Andlauer.
this is known info ?This guy is obviously a fraud. He pretends to be an insider based on known information.
All of these guys make statements like they know what they are talking about they live for interactions. Non of them know anything.This guy is obviously a fraud. He pretends to be an insider based on known information. Like yesterday we hear Dorion not being all that confident in DJ, and dreger mentioning the Roy attachment to one of the bidders. So this guy will come up with this narrative. He’s just like any other sens twitter podcaster.
I don't feel great about Roy but I'm willing to give it a chance.
He's a one and done type of coach I think. Immediate impact that wanes quickly.
