Full story: Columbus Dispatch

After a decade of futility, the firing by the Blue Jackets yesterday of amateur scouting guru Don Boyd and pro scouting director Bob Strumm was hardly a surprise.

bad investment Columbus, OH	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #1 Jun 8, 2011 Judged: 5 4 4 10 years, NO EFFORT. None. 10 years of losing. McConnell and Howson continue to show they dont care at all about winning games or winning hockey
gonzo Columbus, OH	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #2 Jun 8, 2011 Judged: 2 2 1 Based on this it would appear that the team thinks Howson had nothing to do with the team's performance. Or is it just that he is the one conducting the evaluations?
Okiebuck Austin, TX	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #3 Jun 8, 2011 Judged: 4 4 4 Maybe they should hire a figure skater since they play like a bunch of whinny little girls...
Finally Pickerington, OH	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #4 Jun 8, 2011 Judged: 2 2 1 It's about freaking time, possible the worst scouting department in the NHL, the only professional team that may have been worse is the Bengals.....need I say more.
And here we go again New York, NY	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #5 Jun 8, 2011 Judged: 4 4 4 The wrong people got fired. Who's evaluating Howson and Priest? And how is it they still have jobs? C'mon JP - save your franchise and get real hockey people on board!
Fiveholer Columbus, OH	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #6 Jun 8, 2011 Judged: 1 1 It is about time they jettisoned those two. However, that should only be the start. If Howson doesn't do something soon, then Mike Priest should jettison him as well. JP needs to decide if he wants to have a winning team, his father did, or just go to a few games and spend as little money as he can to put a minor league looking team on the ice. They should fire more and start anew. 10 years of us paying our money for what? Give us something to cheer about and we will return to fill the stands. Give us nothing, and all you will hear is echos in the building.

And if you think you'll come to this forum for hockey talk, then you're dumber than that fool who spams these board daily, whining like a little baby. He calls himself loser, crappy, lousy, and other self depreciating names, and rails about things he knows nothing about. If you want spam and whining, stick around. You're in the right place!
