So, I’m saying we have good players and a $&!#ty coach but your saying we have $&!#ty players but a good coach, who’s the true fan? Hint: not you.

Guest Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 I think before you win any rounds in the playoffs, we gotta make the playoffs first. This was the clear goal that Benning, Green and ownership had at the start of the season. I'll be honest, as long as this team makes the playoffs, I will be a happy camper. Even though we are leading the division right now, we are only one point above 4 teams in our division (not that much breathing room). So making the playoffs for us is far from certain.

Besides, I feel we have a solid team, that should make the playoffs and with a bit of luck could make a run, problem is I do not believe we have the right coach for that hence I’m risking my beer consumption to prove my point. I get you want a cup(we all do) but we gotta make the playoffs first. One thing at a time. Once we make the playoffs and win a round then we can have these types of discussions. You're looking wayy too far ahead. Edited January 19, 2020 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Addressing your second part, again, not sure what’s wrong with Gallant but yea, I’m no hockey genius. However I have coached soccer extremely successfully for many years and my job is not only managing people but managing managers as well as training them and based on that experience I am confident in my opinion.

We do have a solid team, but the best players on the team are still growing... They may make waves, but would be very surprised if it wasn't going take a few more years to be dominant... until then less enjoy the ride... Green seems to have done wonders for a fair few of the young players... Definitely glad we don't have the same tunes coming out from the locker room, that they did i Toronto under the stewardship of the 'supposedly' best thing coaching wise since slice bread.... I'd say, let the team grow, and if in another year or two we look stifled, then revisit the thoughts of a coaching change...

I disagree, no matter what a team needs to believe they can win, they need to learn how to win and that is the coaches job. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why wait a couple years, Greens not the man IMHO, but if I’m wrong I’d love nothing better than to pony up and donate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah and Tort's and Crawford had won cup's before they joined our team as head coaches. None of them helped our team win a cup after they joined our team. (They only won one series combined in their time here. ) Edited January 19, 2020 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
