identifying Zak Brown and James Allison as potential

Fleet Street cite Ron Dennis management style as reason the board forced him to step down from his role as Chairman and CEO of McLaren, while identifying Zak Brown and James Allison as potential replacements. Dennis was forced to relinquish his positions following a board meeting on Tuesday.In a statement addressing his enforced resignation from the positions, Dennis said: The grounds they have stated are entirely spurious; my management style is the same as it has always been and is one that has enabled McLaren to become an automotive and technology group that has won 20 Formula One world championships. And it is that unwillingness to change his management style that Fleet Street believe caused Dennis exit.The combative Dennis has clashed in recent weeks with Mumtalakat, the Bahraini sovereign wealth fund that owns 50 per cent of McLaren, and with Saudi businessman Mansour Ojjeh, who controls 25 per cent, wrote Oliver Brown in The Telegraph.They are understood to have become uneasy at his micromanaging approach - Dennis likes, for instance, every room at the groups Woking headquarters to be set to his favourite temperature of 21c. Craig Slater reports that Ron Dennis feels betrayed by his own family after stepping down as McLaren chairman and chief executive Jonathan McEvoy concurred in the Daily Mail writing that Dennis clearly feels upset at being forced out by his fellow shareholders, Saudi businessman Mansour Ojjeh and the Bahrain royal family, who feel that they want a more modern management structure rather than the Ron show, whereby he was front and back of house.Writing in a similar vein, The Guardians Paul Weaver said the board felt that Dennis management style was now holding McLaren back.In recent times, McLaren have struggled to recapture old glories and Dennis is no longer viewed as the man to revive their ailing spirit; in fact, the style that made this ruthlessly single-minded and most driven of men so successful is now viewed as something of a handicap when it comes to development. He was always more autocratic than collegiate, wrote Weaver.Attention now turns to who could replace Dennis, with American businessman Zak Brown thought to be the front runner and former Ferrari technical chief James Allison also linked with a move to McLaren.

WASHINGTON -- With newly signed Evgeny Kuznetsov looking on, the Washington Capitals did their best to entertain their new teammate. Troy Brouwer scored a power-play goal off a rebound to cap a rally from a two-goal deficit in the third period as the Capitals beat the Phoenix Coyotes 3-2 on Saturday night. After failing to score in the first 49 minutes against Mike Smith (30 saves), Washington tallied three times in a span of 5 minutes, 2 seconds. Karl Alzner started the surge with a goal at the 9:45 mark. Just 32 seconds later, Brooks Laich tied it on a feed from Jason Chimera. When Washington got just its second power-play opportunity of the night, David Moss tripping Dmitry Orlov, the Capitals cashed in. Smith failed to control a slap shot by Nicklas Backstrom and it rebounded to Brouwer who scored his seventh goal in his last eight games. The win snapped Washingtons three-game losing streak. The Capitals remained in 10th place in the Eastern Conference standings, one point behind Columbus and Detroit, who are tied for the eighth and final playoff spot. "We know that were at a point where our season is on the line every single game," Brouwer said. "That should be enough motivation in here and it was tonight." It was a successful Washington debut for goalie Jaroslav Halak, who made 31 saves. Halak was acquired from Buffalo in a deadline deal on Wednesday. "It was really weird, wearing that jersey, looking down, seeing the red colour," Halak said. "The first half of the game, I was really nervous. I wanted to obviously leave a good impression on fans on my teammates and everybody in the organization." The victory ended an eventful night for the Capitals. Less than two hours before the game, Washington signed 2010 first-round draft choice Kuznetsov, ending a long pursuit of the 21-year-old forward, who has played the last four years in Russias Kontinental Hockey League. He could make his NHL debut Monday night when the Capitalss host the Pittsburgh Penguins.dddddddddddd "He doesnt know this hockey and we dont want to put him in a situation that he cant handle right now," Washington coach Adam Oates said. "But in saying that, if we can spot him in the lineup it could be a nice spark for us. Hes a very talented man." Brandon McMillan and Radim Vrbata scored for Phoenix, with Keith Yandle assisting on both. "It seemed like we stopped playing the way we played in the first and the second," Vrbata said. "When you have a 2-0 lead going into the third, you have to find a way to win, and we didnt." The Coyotes took the lead with 62 seconds left in the first period when Washington lost the puck in the neutral zone as it began a transition play. McMillan turned the mistake into a breakaway goal, his first in the NHL since scoring in the 2011 playoffs for Anaheim. It might have been the second goal for McMillan. Midway through the period, he appeared to score off a rebound. But officials ruled that McMillan simultaneously pushed the puck and Halaks pad across the goal line. In the second period, Phoenix made it 2-0 as Vrbata redirected a shot from the point by Michael Stone. After losing 3-0 on Thursday at Boston, Washington appeared destined for a second straight shutout until Alzner scored from deep as Yandle appeared to screen the view of Smith -- starting the big comeback. It was just the second goal this season for the defenceman. "Maybe it had something to do with the fact that it was me who scored it and not a guy who normally scores, but people seemed really up after that," Alzner said. "It was the perfect momentum swing and the perfect line to come out right after that. It was a perfect storm for us." Notes: Phoenix forward Martin Erat was booed many times when he touched the puck. Erat was dealt by Washington this week after scoring one goal for the team. In November, Erat asked to be traded, complaining about a lack of playing time. ' ' '
