Fred65 Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 So if there's not a coach interviewed shortly does that mean they're waiting for John Stevens from the Kings to come free when and after he's finsihed with the Stanley Cup run ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Where's Wellwood Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 How would we know if there has or hasn't been any interviews with anyone? Benning was interviewed before the Bruins were eliminated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gyllenhaal Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 How would we know if there has or hasn't been any interviews with anyone? Benning was interviewed before the Bruins were eliminated. Benning was an AGM he didnt have any impact on the game so he could go to Vancouver even if there was a game the next day. A coach needs to be there for the game and practices. We have to wait till Desjardins and Stevens are out of the playoffs till Benning and Linden start the interviews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timberz21 Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 Right now, I think Trotz was the only big fish in the pool and he's gone (you could also add Laviolette, who's gone as well). Compared to last year when Torts, AV, Ruff were all availabe and it was unknown if Tippits would re-sign or not. The rest of the field is wide open and chances are teams won't be fighting over the same guy. Therefore I don't think there is a rush for us to choose our coach, because of the lack of big names and also the limited numbers of teams looking for a head coach (Florida, Carolina is basically it). And if they are both looking at Stevens and Desjardins, I think we have an advantage because of the market and the better roster. So I think we can afford to wait until playoff are over.

Kevo882 Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 I'm sure Stevens is at the top of the list but they will interview others. Benning has only had a short time to settle in and has a lot to do. Be patient... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

panelguy Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 The draft is coming soon so they had better have someone ready to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeltaSwede Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 Well Stevens is clearly still heavily involved with his current team and without forgetting another candidate, Desjardins is also still coaching Texas in the playoffs. I think those two are the final candidates for the job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
