The Florida Panthers – What are they doing?

It's a subtle strategy, but I see right through you Dale Tallon. Yes, you're spending lots of money. Yes, you're bringing in lots of free agents. Yes, the optics are that you have made yourself a competitive team. But I know what you're really doing. And might I say, sir - it's brilliant.

Michael Leighton

By Dobber Sports|2011-04-23T14:54:13-04:00April 23rd, 2011|The Dobotomy|

He got the proverbial bum's rush.

Not his fault. Not even the fault of the Flyers.
