Wow. A star hockey player, defending his former fired-GM Dale Tallon, and spilling the beans about all the behind-the-scenes drama:
“My negotiation with Chicago was not between Dale and my agent, it was between Dale and McDonough. Why? Because McDonough couldn’t stand that Dale was so successful and getting the credit for building the Hawks from a last place team to making the Conference Finals in 3 short years. Remember, we were also the youngest team in the NHL last year,” Havlat said.
“I was too closely identified with Dale. McDonough knew long ago he was going to fire Dale. He wanted someone he could claim as his own. He wanted to stand up at the convention and claim credit for signing this guy or that guy.”
I would not be surprised if a Reality TV NHL or MLB show was proposed, that it may outdraw the actual game outside the regional market.
