Feaster Done In Tampa

We all expected this…

vis TSN,

The Tampa Bay Lightning and general manager Jay Feaster have parted ways. Sources tell TSN that club has negotiated a settlement on the remaining three years of his contract.

added 1:06pm, from Lightning Strikes,

Feaster said he will not be available to the media Friday, but had two extensive quotes in a team release.

“For the past two weeks I have watched from the sidelines as Brian Lawton, Len Barrie and Oren Koules executed to perfection the game-plan they shared with us prior to the NHL Draft in Ottawa,” Feaster said. “During that time it became apparent to me that this new ownership group did not need my advice or expertise, and I came to the conclusion that it was time to move on. When I expressed that sentiment to Oren and Len they immediately agreed to honor my contract and accept my resignation. I thank them for working with me through a difficult time and I wish them every continued success.”

They’re losing a guy who can read the CBA like it’s second-grade English.

Unbelievable…

Wait a year for Burke, who’s getting himself in trouble with the league already, or grab this guy right now?
I know what I’d do. But I won’t get my hopes up.
