I'm sure Ted will be the guy, ... I have no doubt he'll be the guy. But I don't know why it had to take a few guys being upset (to do it right).

Everything has to be out in the open now and we have to get this solved.

My opinion is that a whole new (executive) committee has to be selected. (One) that hires a professional search team (to find a replacement for Goodenow) and go from there. And Ted can put his name in the hat. This is not about Ted Saskin. It is about doing things properly and 700 guys being happy at the end of the day.

I spoke to Rob Blake , Chris Pronger , Chris Chelios and Brendan Shanahan last night, I think we all had the same issues about the process. Our whole point was that things weren't done right.

I think with the lawyers that are being hired, things will take care of itself, ... There will be a search put on to find who Bob's replacement is and that's the way it should have been done in the first place.

I don't think it's that we don't want Ted Saskin, I think just the way the whole process was conducted everybody isn't too happy with.

Trevor and Ted have worked hard on this but they were part of the team that cancelled the season, too. It's not up to those guys to make decisions. It's up to us 700 guys. I think that's where the frustration sets in with everybody.

To do this for these kids is special for all of us. I think there's more need than we think, the problems that we have, the gun problems and all that stuff, those are all things that we have to address and there are charities that really need a lot of money.

The process has to be conducted a little more properly.
