    Still no statement from Arnett

    I don't know but it just seems odd. No "thanks for the opportunity" or anything.
    Everyone wants to be a beast...until its time to do what beasts do.

    To be fair, his "opportunity" was kind of thrown on him in a tough situation and he only coached like 10 games.

    Not making excuses for him sucking because he sucked as a HC, but I don't think he really has an opportunity to be grateful for.

    Based on his past interviews any statement he may issue would be very unimpressive if even coherent

    I doubt many if any would say anything in a grateful manner if being fired during season 1. I'm not saying we shouldn't have as I supported the firing.

    I mean, cool I guess. I have no ill will towards Zach. He sucked, but I don't think "F him" is a reasonable response to the guy. But to each his own

    Not many people say "thanks for firing me". Plus, Arnett is kind of an asshole anyway. He's not the best PR guy I've ever seen.

    exactly, I do not understand the "thought" that Arnett owes us some kind of thanks for firing him after less than a full year. He was put in a situation by very poor leadership in a bad situation where they panicked and it has spiraled into a real disaster that may take a decade to recover from.

    Arnett was pretty good at throwing the F word around. Maybe we don't want him to say anything.
