I guess its safe to say Lumbard and crew weren't happy with the interviews they had with Malcolm and company.

Getting rid of Parker's stable and starting fresh. I'm guessing Chad's days are numbered too. Why keep him and gas the others?

Mr. Markwart

Lorne Molleken is here for his 315 appointment and I've scheduled Mr. Lang for 9 AM tomorrow.

There has to be more to this. Malcolm was too good of a coach. I'm guessing there had to be some friction between Chad and himself.

Lang hired Cameron. He didn't fire him but in fact the ownership group did. They went over the GM's head and fired his HC. Already the new group is showing way too much interference. I'm here to say that Saskatoon isn't the only place with a meddling ownership. I fully expect the new group to let Lang go very soon. The new coach will likely also be the GM. This clearly wasn't Lang's decision so it's easy to tell whose it was. Nobody can be a GM like that. Chad will done very soon.

Can't help but think Chad Lang played a big part in this.
