from George Richards of On Frozen Pond,
Sexton says he got some things done and progress is being made toward the real trade deadline on March 3. That’s when teams will be wheeling and dealing….
“I thought today went pretty well. Worked at things, made good progress, just couldn’t get anything completed.
“Today is the first deadline before the next deadline. There’s a lot of time, I’ll just keep working the next few weeks until the early part of March.
“Some teams still have games to play and we’re all under the CBA roster limitations and salary cap floors and ceilings. For some teams, they’re at the roster limit and playing tonight or tomorrow and it’s a challenge to manage things. It’s a point of negotiating. You want the lowest price if you are a buyer, and you want to extract the highest price if you are a seller.

“It was [expletive] brutal. We have too many guys who don’t compete. You can’t win in this game unless you’re ready to show up and go to war every night. We don’t have enough of them. .-.-. This is not type of team we want. We’re going to keep making changes until we get that. It takes time.
“It’s like turning around the Titanic and not a rowboat.’’

Sources tell TSN Randy Sexton has accepted the job of general manager of the Florida Panthers.
The Panthers are expected to announce Sexton’s official role before today’s game in Finland.
A native of Brockville, Ontario, Sexton is being promoted from his current role of Assistant General Manager with Florida. He was appointed to that role in early 2007.

Will Sexton Be Named Panthers GM?

from Stan Fischler at the Hockey Journal,
Here’s an interesting take on the vacant Florida GM slot from a high NHL exec: Since the draft and major free agency picks have been completed, it’s quite possible that assistant GM Randy Sexton simply will inherit Jacques Martin’s chair for the 2009-2010 season.
Look at it this way: Sexton has plenty of experience (Ottawa and Florida) and will save a financially strapped franchise some extra bucks. Plus, between overseer Bill Torrey and Sexton, the Panthers’ braintrust is as good as any around.
