The OHL’s Saginaw Spirit has fired another general manager. This time it was former NHL goaltender Don Edwards getting the pink slip. Mark Constantine of The Saginaw News reports that the Spirit have done this four times in their seven-year history. According to Constantine, “Saginaw president and managing partner Craig Goslin cited several reasons for the move, including a lack of communication. . . . Edwards and head coach Todd Watson did not see eye-to-eye on nearly anything, creating a rift that saw the two men barely speaking to each other at the end.” The Spirit has named Watson director of hockey operations and head coach.
