News Article: Pierre McGuire: “You’ll be seeing a lot of me

[YouGotAStuGoing]

i think most ppl are missing the point that McGuire HIMSELF said we would be hearing from him a lot. So this expectation, though not typical of a director of development or whatever bogus title they want to hand him, is entirely established by McGuire, not the fans.

Direct quotes from the interview, given to Quinte News in Belleville:
"The truth of the matter is I want to try and get on the road with the players too. I want them to know that every day when they come to work, someone from the big team is watching them and it's not just through videotape, it's through hands-on, boots-on-the-ground scouting. So you'll see me a fair bit, I'm going to try to get to a lot of practices soon — not just games, practices."

I interpret this as talking directly to the interviewer in saying, "you'll see me a fair bit at the arena, watching games and scouting."

I'm saying why bring in a media guy like Mcguire if all he's doing is hanging around Belleville? I'm sure he'd doing something regarding player development, but it's not really what Pierre is good at.

How do you know he's not good at that? You're just making stuff up, and it's kind of pathetic. Find something better to complain about

same goes for Pierre Sr. with his ‘rebuild is over’ messaging. They set this unrealistic expectation, should answer for their assessments

It's ok to want more transparency from the organization but that also doesn't mean they are doing their actual job because they aren't talking to the media.

100 Percent. How does @L'Aveuglette have any clue about what McGuire is good at regarding player development. Do you think they gave him the player development title for no reason? The communications officer is doing the job you are describing.

Complain about the record, the defense, the GM. There is a myriad of options, don't make some up because you simply feel like it.

 

[Qward]

He’s never been on there. They haven’t updated the website since he’s joined management. Zac Bierk also doesn’t show up

They probably fired the guy that had the admin password.

 

[L'Aveuglette]

Why are you angry about being accused of being so angry?

PD and PM are busy building a championship team. They have no time for chit-chat.

Your attempts at antagonizing me are weak bro.

 

[Do Make Say Think]

What can management say?

I agree it would be nice to hear from someone but we all know why things are going sideways: not enough money and attracting good players to come here is almost impossible.

It's not about what they'll say — we all know they'll deflect, dodge, blame outside circumstances. At this point it's less about the content of them speaking and more the optics. The only thing worse than empty platitudes is hiding in the shadows and not taking accountability.

He said “seeing” a lot of him, at the rink. He even said himself “at he rink”.

Not sure he said ‘hearing a lot of me in the media’, but maybe I missed that bit.

Pierre McGuire is like Chris Tierny. Just ....

i feel like it was alluded to on the radio or in one of the interview McGuire did shortly after. That was my impression but maybe we misunderstood

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

The only thing we have to understand is Pierre McGuire works for Pierre Dorion. Pierre McGuire will speak to the media when Pierre Dorion feels Pierre McGuire will not be asked questions that he himself should be answering.

Think the exact same, god forbid he speaks to media without Dorion crafting the conversation. Don't worry BG or Bob will have an interview in a few weeks.

Maybe bowtie Bruce will do provide info between periods? He does a lot of those. Not sure about the real info part though.

 

[Big Muddy]

Delete.

It's probably #melnykout but if you type it on a company computer melnyks notified and get insta fired.

 

[Big Muddy]

God - ette goal.

Stutzle is hounding the puck tonight. Would be nice to see him rewarded with a goal.

Ooops - wrong thread LOL.

 

[Tuna99]

He’s been a huge help.

Naw, Dorion threw out the note with the password when he was taking out the trash in their offices.

Assennayo!

 

[BondraTime]

Should be made interim GM ASAP.

How far we've fallen that we now are hoping Pierre McGuire will become GM Asap...

I’ve hoped for it the day it was announced he was joining the Sens.

We already know what we have in Dorion, I’d honestly accept anyone else. Worse case scenario we have someone as bad as Dorion.

Ya, that's fair, I just mean that before PM was hired, nobody, or rather very few would have hoped for him to be our next GM. Only reason people seem to want him now is because he is anybody but Dorion.

Uh, worst case is we get Mike Milbury and we trade our young players and draft picks for mediocre veterans.

assen na yo

If PM was still doing his 1200 morning hits, what would he really say about the Sens situation? I don't think he is silent behind closed doors. After all, Pierre knows everything!
