Roy Knight is a nugget. He ruined his kids career. Not sure why he'd be thought of when it comes to benching on a team that is already shaky. The Tilbury rumour is Ryan Tallon. He has never coached at the junior level and hasn't done anything in Tilbury other than alienate himself from the players and parents he's dealt with.He was a "scout" with the Comets a while back. Word is from the Comets that he was a pain in the *** around the rink. It is also being said that Shawn Marontate is making a comeback. Also rumoured is Dave Wiper. A Wiper/Marontate combo could be a possibility.

I have heard that Marontate is uninterested in the position as he is focusing on family life. Watched them this weekend Tallon is an a**h*le but runs a tight ship they came from behind 5-2 to tie. His coaching staff has Ridout and St.Clair's old goalie Achetti. As far as alienating goes they keep bringing him back and is not from there.

Roy Knight is a good guy, passionate about hockey and loves his kid, did he ruin his career, I doubt that, Bob is a 5-8 180 lbs defenceman, hard to make with those kinda stats....
Tallon gets the job done, as for being a pain in the arse, anyone in kingsville that is not a yes man is considered to be a pain in the arse.....
Wiper marontate combo, will not happen, Maronatate id a solid knowledgeable hockey guy, but too sensitive to be on the same side as wiper....
Wiper will never be in kinsville untill a certain hatchet is buried between him and somebody in the organization......
I would like to see higgins given a chance beings he stuck the year out in quite a tumultuous situation.....
If I were building the organization, I would more than likley try to build it like this....
Director of hockey ops------Butch Ott
GM--------------------------Sawn Marontate
Head Coach------------------Ryan Tallon
Asst Coach------------------Mark Ridout
Asst Coach------------------Steve Higgins
Goalie Coach----------------T.J Achetti
but then again too many egos in play..............
best advice for kingsville brass, stop recycling People, if it didnt work in the past, it will not work now....bring in new people with new ideas....

The Kingsville Comets Jr. C Hockey Club would like to announce hiring of Tom Kirby as the Director of Hockey Operations. Mr. Kirby comes to the Comets from the LaSalle Vipers Jr. B Hockey Club (previously Tecumseh Chiefs Jr. B) where he has been the Head Scout for the past three years.
