I disagree but it's an opinion. But I won't refute something like the most careless defense in the past ten years. That I'd willingly agree with. They absolutely did not care. -

Loved his personality. Loved his coaching in the first year. Dreadful coaching in the second year (I'm guessing management handcuffed him). I'll miss the post games and the interviews. Great guy. -

Bruce, there he goes. -
I was not referencing you working in a union but the coaches the way they can't lose jobs at the NHL level is similar to unions lol. And the guy hasn't been a winner at all at the NHL level despite working there for 5+ years lol. If you can't find nobody that is good then you outsource looking for talent. Just accepting a proven weak head coach hoping he will be better is like hiring Mike Yeo and hoping for success.

The guy has never been a winner in the handful of years he's coached. You can only blame your teams so long but a good coach will have at least a winning season. The NHL coaching selection is an old boys club of just some horrible coaches continuing to circulate around the league. Same terrible performers keep getting shuffled around. If I underperformed for 5 years for my job I wouldn't have a job but once you get that head coaching job it seems like you work for a union lol.
