    Must be a great position for Rowe to be in (he says sarcastically). He'll be gone in no time after being honest about how this all went down. You can't make an owner look bad publically and not face any consequences. How can Rowe do both the GM and Head Coach jobs better than with Gallant? He's clearly being set up to fail and get fired by the season's end or at least when the owner finds another monkey he can hire for his circus that is the Panthers. If there is one thing that successful franchises have, it's owners who let their management/coaches do their jobs without interference.

    EDIT: Where's Dale Tallon in all of this? The President of HOCKEY OPERATIONS is strangely quiet here...

    One Partner of the Panthers (Doug Cifu) was fine with it, so I am sure the Owners are fine with it and have confidence in Rowe.
