Press Conference @ 1100am

[lethbridgefan83]

Hurricanes have called a Press Conference per the Facebook Fan Page.. Wonder if its about the Logo Debacle or if RP's Shelf Life just expired..

Doing my happy dance. Already like the replacements.
Good for the kids! Soliid replacements imo.

Some interesting stuff on Dylan Purcell's blog, quoting from there
"I'm trying to find out if the coach they want is going to be there"
"Because Ive already confirmed the GM they want is there"

My speculation is RP stays as GM, but maybe a Coaching Change.... Also sounds like it must be someone local (maybe Pappaionu), If it was like a major league type of coach coming here someone would have known something by now..

On the other hand, all could be too many people reading between the lines and it could be a Logo Announcement, or something stupid like Twister Fell and broke his foot..

I'm hearing from reliable sources that Kabayama is taking over head coaching with Twister as an assistant. Seems smart to not take on anymore salary. New mascot will be Dylan Purcell.

Pres. Brian McNaughton says there are NO immediate plans to fire HC/GM Rich Preston despite displeasure with results.

Could there be a decision on the future of assistant coaches Matt Kabayama and Chris Chisamore? Canes call an 11am conference. Stay tuned.

According to their FaceBook page, Rich Preston has been relieved of his duties. Brad Robson is the new GM.

[Derek Sutton]

Finally.

Guess Ill have to go get my season tickets now LOL

[blacksheep]

Hasn't the new GM been ultimately in charge of scouting for the last 10 years. How's that gone for us.

[here for the long run]

Sure hope Brad hires the next head coach on one year terms. With the roster we have there should be zero tolerance for less than top 3 in the conference. Brad should have a lot of coaches to choose from with this roster.
