coach or gm first?

There seems to be a lot of discussion about who would a possible new coach but isn't their a good chance a new GM would happen first?

What is the chance Tepper would keep Hurney but let go of Rivera?  Seems like if one goes they both would and then the new GM would be instrumental in hiring the next coach.

If that did happen who would be some candidates that people would like to see as GM?

I keep thinking of an old tweet by Louis Riddick:

 

I still have my doubts on how much RR and DG were on the same page.  Seems like the best organizations benefit when everyone has the same vision.

I think Ron’s job depends on how we play these last three games. If we can win at home against the Aints or at least give them a game and beat the Cons I’m thinking Ron is safe for another year. I think Hurney is gone no matter what.

As far as who should be hired first, thinking a GM.

Unless Tepper is going to hire the HC, you cant let Hurney hire him if he is heading out the door as well.  I actually think Hurney will be safe, he really hasnt done anything to lose his job.  Hell, even Ron might be safe seeing there is not much better out there and the team owes him 15 million.

    • Gustavsson would be insane. I think we would have to break the bank to afford that move. Which, I don't think is necessarily a bad idea. Ultimately, Freddie isn't likely to be around more than a couple of seasons more. We can all agree that unless they have a fleet of sports psychologists working on Kochetkov, he will never be capable of getting his head on straight enough to compete.
    • I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.
    • Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.
