Interesting situation where the GM role is also vacant ... if the chosen coach is not also offered the GM job, it is hard to offer a lot of job security when their future boss is not yet in place ... If they are smart they hire a big name as coach and GM, let Thibeau be his assistant. Hepditch should be gone too, the defense is not improving.

That just sounds weird...how can you "release" a head coach? By paying him to not coach any more. It's not complicated. There are many words to use for a firing/release/dismissal/re-assignment of a head coach.

Just thinking that big name coach/GM candidates may be rare in season, and we may end up having to wait until spring to find the one we want - in which case we may finish the season with Hepditch. Unless they already have a lead on someone and the hold up in getting him hired as GM was that he wanted to coach as well ... Agree on Hepditch - I suspect he got a stay of execution, partly because they need someone to run the team until a new coach is found, partly out of loyalty to a young former player ... my guess is he won’t be back next year, and they will quietly decide not to renew his contract this summer - allow him to save face by spinning it that the new coach wanted his own guy as an assistant.

Joel Quinville is available and he has played in Moncton.....

He does own companies. I assume that’s why he’s in Ottawa. He literally fired Rumble today. I doubt he has leads on anyone yet.

Lets start a petition open to anyone in the Maritimes to urge the Wildcats to ask permission to talk with Marc Andre Dumont to be their next coach. I bet you would have 200000 names from eastern Nova Scotia on it by midnight.
