For anyone who missed the 2nd intermission interview with Patrick McNeil last night I think a few of us missed the big announcement Friday.
So congratulations to Trevor Simon. The Eagles newly announced Vice-President who got to announce his own hire during the 2nd intermission interview.
Trevor has closely followed the staffing changes. Joey our General Manager is fantastic. Couturier helping in the back office. These were fantastic off ice changes.
Now they need the fans to come out and have a fun time. Fans cheer cash in the bag so its a fun outing.
Trevor's going to come here as much as he can. Come up on weekends. During the week. Easy flight into Quebec from NY so good to know he's going to have such a big presence.
He wants a top 3 division finish and home ice and 3500-4000 fans for round 1.
Trevor also wants to get skates so he can go on the ice with the coaches and players.
==============================================================
I wish all the above was satire. If you are a season ticket holder in over $1000 for these next 6-7 months before they come calling for 16 playoff games....remember this the next time there's one of those town hall things.
Where the owner has the nerve to use words like world class in terms of hires then sticks his kid with no knowledge or experience on the radio to announce his new title and then thoroughly embarrass himself, his dad, the front office, and anyone who pays to support this organization.
Oh this interview also came with 1 period left in an opening weekend being dominated 13-1 by a rival. You can't make up how fucking inept this organization has become under Irwin Simon.
I've been around for many of this organizations failures. Sat in the arena after so many tough losses to end seasons. Including everything way back in 2004 that felt like a gut shot. But what I heard was a top 3 moment of all time embarrassment for this franchise.
No excuse for it. No defense to be had for it. Its 100% up to the teenagers here because the "adults" are absolutely clueless.

That tells me all I need to know right there.

Oh My ..........This might even top the Shaw - MacIntosh Fiasco . That's all this New Head Coach needs is the Owner's Son out skating around in practice talking to the players . He looks like he might be having some initial problems cooking a meal with all the High Priced ingredients that Courtourier and Hanna went out and purchased for him .

I, like all of you, remain a loyal Eagles fan, just knew it was not the place I wished to remain working  Don’t need you to be tossing my name into the mix here! Hope you are all well! Tough opening weekend but lots more season to play! |

Simon literally bought his son a hockey team to play with as a toy, right on.
Honest to god this will make me go to less games this season, because I will absolutely not support this team running it self in to the ground.
It's honestly embarrassing is what it is, kid wants to lace the skates up and be a fan boy to the players & coaches, jesus christ - just when you thought it couldn't get worse.

What an embarrassment is right Trevor Simon going on radio and saying that he would like to go on ice for practice, what kind of vice president says that ? Anyways it looks like the Trevor Simon show now with Joey haddad running the business office and Couturier running the hockey side of things . Not off to a good start . I thought the past eras of rioux/ choules , cote/ dumont , Shaw/ Carriere were bad , well this may take it to another level with only Couturier having management experience between compared to Trevor Simon and haddad having zero

Please tell me this is satire? This is absolutely ridiculous and atrocious to say the least. He doesn’t even know who does what in the organization. Never heard of a VP being on the ice at all nor a President for that matter. Know wonder that we are the laughing stock of the CHL. Just another black eye for the Eagles organization.

It’s still hard to believe he was appointed the vice president title , but I guess Irwin wants someone around more often with Shaw no longer there to look over things . Just hope he stays out of the way of Couturier and Robitaille but Iam not confident of that .

He will probably stay out of Sly's way but when he gets those new skates , Robitaille may have trouble getting him off the ice .......  |
