All right.

Want to bang out a couple of mailbag questions? Let's do a couple. You want to read them or do you want me to? Sure, I can read them. All right. Well, we'll start with Roger, who has sent a couple in, but I'll start with this. It doesn't seem Cam Neely and Charlie Jacobs blamed Don Sweeney last season for some failure due to key player injuries, both Lindholm's,

McAvoy, Marchand, Castellick.

But if Jeremy Swamon has another average season this year, right before his long,

no trade clause kicks in, could that be the end of Sweeney?

Would Sweeney's job be in danger if Marco Sturm doesn't further develop any of this year's crop of prospects or, you know, say slash young players.

Is there a GM offense worse than making a bad long-term signing or hiring a coach that

is a mismatch for the team given to him?

Well, he should be.

He should be on the hot seat and let go if, if, if, like, you can't, you, you can't

have the year you had last year and, and then follow that up with another shit season,

but then have this silver line

and we, well, we're closer to getting McKenna.

Well, okay, yeah, because you sucked.

Like, like, your moves didn't work.

Right.

And, like, Gavin McKenna can be the next GM's reward.

Right.

Exactly.

And, like, even James Higgins, like, he fell to you. You had to not select him at number seven overall. I mean, would have been the, would have been fireball right then. So I, you know, am I, can I give him credit for making the selection? Yeah, like, I'm not going to take credit from him, but I'm not going to, I'm not going to give him a huge pat on the back forward. It was an obvious choice. So, yeah, I mean, I think, I definitely think that Sweeney's job, I can't say if it's going to be on, you know, if he, if he isn't a hot seat because he's very close with with neelie and he's

very close with ownership but should he be yeah absolutely yeah like rogers rightly this is

those would be the moves that ultimately get you fired. Like if, and I would add, I would add, well, we've talked about it before.
