That's right, then one of the councillors asked Robison if he has been asked by the shareholders to speak to them directly, he said he has not yet been asked, but would be happy to meet with them if they would ever ask? It is a never ending treadmill, Robison says Canes must improve management/leadership within hockey operations so that they can become competitive, draw bigger crowds, make money and become self sustaining financially? Then in the next sentence from McNaughton, he says nothing is changing, same manager/coach next season likely because there is no cash available to make any meaningful changes , what so ever? So here we go again! Will be interesting to see what comes out of the Brad Lukowich allegation that he brought concerns forward that some members of the coaching staff where in violation of some WHL mandated policies and procedures? If that ever becomes a proven fact, could be grounds for for dismissal with cause? With no $$$ to make any meaningful changes, shareholders that seem content to continue status quo it looks impossible for anything to improve next season, in fact, probable that things will continue to get worse as the management will have to continue to cut more corners within hockey operations (try to do more with less) which will directly impact the players and their attitudes! At some point, the league will step in though, as they can ill afford to support a team that fails at the level this one is...
