Vegas hires McPhee as GM, Kelly McCrimmon as Ast.GM

[jammer2]

A nice start for the yet to be named Vegas team. George McPhee is an experienced savvy GM who will get that team jump started. His first move? He goes out and secures Kelly McCrimmon (brother of the late, great Brad McCrimmon), who is basically the man in Brandon Wheat Kings org....he owns them, is GM....coach, scout...he basically built that team from the ground up. He's very similar to Dale Hunter on the OhL's London Knights. They both own and totally control their franchises. Kelly is a GREAT addition, super hockey guy who is awesome at picking out young star kids. Very nice start for George, to lock up a solid hockey guy like McCrimmon. You wanna surround yourself with good solid hockey minds, and Kelly is a great place to start.
