Malheureusement, si Kavis Reed n’a pas été congédié après la saison 2017, Maciocia ne sera pas congédié après la saison 2020 même avec une fiche de 0-18 (il jetterait Khari Jones sous l’autobus)
Mr. Stern you are making a huge mistake. Danny Maciocia is not a good GM. Proved it in Edmonton.
Unfortunately, you probably game this fake GM a three to four year high paid contract. You will regret it.
I hope, Mr. Stern, that some of your employees read this forum and tell you how must of us feel. You gave us hope on Monday when it was announced that you have purchased the Team; unfortunately, the week ends on sad/bar news.
He will take all credit and throw Khari Jones under the bus if victories are not “au rendez-vous”. May even want to replace him.
Ditto for us here in Argo land who think Maciocia was a horrible HC, despite winning a GC.
Is it possible, just maybe he has learned his lesson is more humble, has a better appreciation for the league, its fans and equally important has learned to properly evaluate talent?
Dunno if he developped his scouting skills and his contacts within Canada and the US when he was at UdeM for 10 years, but in 2016 he ordered a press conference just to say that he was offered to be the team’s president, and that he refused. I don’t think his attitude has changed.
We may not like the choice, but I think that DM, like most situations in life, deserves a second chance. I think that we should refrain from bashing the guy before he has had a chance to make his first transaction.
If he screws up, then by all means, bash away! But until then, give him a break.
