Pitino is the right choice, why do you think all the other teams are
offering him $8M plus a year ?  I heard a rumor about a 5yr $45M deal, with
some ownership.

But Pitino or Duncan wont help alone if there are still too many people in
upper management calling the shots.

It is time to clean house as the Montreal Canadians are in hockey, to get
the franchise heading in the right direction.
