bartshan-83 Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 Supposedly there will be a 10 AM news conference to confirm.

Alaska Darin Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 The first casualties of the pre-salary cap big spenders. Sweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dante Posted October 23, 2006 Share Posted October 23, 2006 I would say 12 years too late for the Flyers. Not like I care. Not only is Clarke a terrible manager as far as personel goes he's a all around prik as well. Was the dirtiest player on the Flyers when in thier goon squad hay day. Not that it was obvious because he never faught. Goons like Shultz, Saleski and Kelly had his back when he pulled his spearing, slashing sh--. His mean spirit carried over to his gm career as well in his handling of Lindros. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loadofmularkey Posted October 23, 2006 Share Posted October 23, 2006 Is it fair to say that between last year's showing in the first round of the playoffs and last Tuesday's embarrassment, the Sabres are the reason that Clarkie and Hitch are out? Even if that's a stretch, I'm going with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if that's a stretch, I'm going with it. 813834[/snapback] I think that's fair to say about Captain Kangaroo, but Clarke has been one of the worst front office guys in the league, and probably should have been fired years ago.

smokinandjokin Posted October 23, 2006 Share Posted October 23, 2006 Clarke has been one of the worst front office guys in the league, and probably should have been fired years ago. 813855[/snapback] Definitely true. Clarke somehow stayed on board while countless coaches that he hired were kicked to the curb, because they couldn't succeed with players that he brought in. He was one of the worst execs in the league, and the implementation of the salary cap just made his deficiencies more glaring. His solution in the past was to just throw money at every problem, and even that didn't work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Posted October 23, 2006 Share Posted October 23, 2006 The Bills games against the Bears and Pats remind me of the thrashing the Sabres gave the Flyers. I suppose we have to take the good with the bad (as much as I hate the bad). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WWVaBeach Posted October 23, 2006 Share Posted October 23, 2006 From MSNBC.COM: Flyers chairman Ed Snider said he decided to fire Hitchcock after a 9-1 loss to Buffalo last week, one of the worst in the franchise’s 40-year history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
