Heard that he also said that if Holland was GM the offer sheet would not have happened because of Hockey Canada Bro Code or something. Lol. Oh well. There are greater consequences to keeping Holland as GM.
|
I don't know, bro code didn't stop the other GMs from taking advantage of Holland in a couple of trades, or get Calgary to stand down on the stupid James Neal compensation. I wonder how many (other than obviously the Oilers) really believe it's a tight knit brothership who shouldn't take advantage of one another?
|
Hockey Canada Broship is at the highest tier though. I actually do believe that Armstrong wouldn't do that to Holland, but that is kinda goofy. These guys are paid by their owners to make the best possible team.
How it likely goes down if Holland was still here is Broberg asks for a trade, and Holland, the good bro that knows his bro doug needs a LHD, trades him to St Louis for a 2nd round pick :)
|
Bowman has been around these circles all his life though. Hardly someone who isn't part of the bros.
|
I think you're underestimating the Hockey Canada Broship. The source of 3 of our last 4 GM's, all hired and sold to Katz by fellow Hockey Canada Bros, and the source of the best burger a hockey arena has ever served. Doubt Bowman has even a tiny fraction of the relationship with Armstrong that Holland has.
|
This does have a tinge of Bro Code to it, but not directed so much at Bowman, but rather the new kid on the block Jeff Jackson.
That interview with Holland and JJ after the Knoblauch hire was so cringeworthy that it sticks in my brain. Holland saying he's talked to the core group before firing Woody, and then Jackson over speaking him and contradicting his statement felt like two managers who were out of alignment with each other.
Add in Chiarelli's dismissal from the previous regime and how ugly it went adds more fuel for the Blues to get nasty with Edmonton. It also would not be a surprise if we found out Holland was pushed to the backburners all of last season and he confided to his buddies who were GM's of other teams (Armstrong) and this was a big FU to JJ that you need to respect the old boys.
I'm normally not a conspiracy guy, but I have lots of experience working in a dysfunctional organization and weird things happen when people are not treated right.
|
Is there a better display of the Hockey Canada Bro Code than Armstrong giving Chia a job after what he did here? haha
McDavid saved the day hopefully and finally shut the door on that gang. Getting his former agent running our org to give us the best hope to keep him for an extra 8 years was what the doctor ordered. Hopefully the Stan Bowman side effects are harmless.
