Campbell's Cuts: Martin move leaves Panthers with a serious hole
By Ken Campbell
The game of musical chairs that has been played in NHL circles over the past couple of weeks has left the Florida Panthers scrambling for someone to fill the chair in their GM’s office.
If the Montreal Canadiens and Jacques Martin had been able to make up their minds two weeks ago, the Panthers would have had the chance to hire either Chuck Fletcher or Joe Nieuwendyk, both of whom have past ties to the organization and might have been a good fit. Instead, Fletcher signed on with the Minnesota Wild and Nieuwendyk was unveiled as the new GM of the Dallas Stars Sunday afternoon.

They would have fired him after the season began anyhow. Everyone says he was told by ownership not to trade Bouwmeester and they'd make a run for the playoffs. They kept him and lost on the chance taken. Ownership is not going to take ownership for a blunder like that. His head was on the block anyhow. I'm glad to see him Montreal. They got their French coach......now they need their french superstar and with Lecavalier apparently headed to Los Angeles who do they have to acquire??
