avelanch Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 Brendan Burke @brendanmburke 2h Travis Green was Mike Johnston’s assistant with @pdxwinterhawks prior to joining #Comets. http://www.vancouversun.com/sports/hockey/vancouver-canucks/Canucks+Mike+Santorelli+slip+away/9979127/story.html … View summary Brendan Burke @brendanmburke 2h The @VanCanucks have granted permission to #Comets head coach Travis Green to talk with @penguins about joining them as an assistant coach. I really liked Green with our prospects too. He was great with them and got them to turn it around and play their best the rest of the season after a super slow start.

Tearloch7 Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 We will bring in someone who knows Willie D's system, and coaches to his philosophy, and our 'kids' will come ready to play when their 'day' comes. Really like Travis and hope he does well, but this may be a blessing in disguise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really like Travis and hope he does well, but this may be a blessing in disguise.I agree with this, let's bring in a coach with the same vision and style much like Detroit's organization does, offering a more seamless transition between AHL and the NHL.

avelanch Posted June 30, 2014 Author Share Posted June 30, 2014 Do we get a 3rd round pick as compensation?? Wasnt that just approved or wont kick in till next year.. i don't think that counts for people being hired as Assistant Coaches: Elliotte Friedman ✔ @FriedgeHNIC Follow Today, NHL also approved compensation for a team losing someone hired to be head coach, GM or President/Hockey Ops with another club (1/2) Elliotte Friedman ✔ @FriedgeHNIC Follow Generally, we're talking a third-round draft pick, and the club doing the hiring will have a window of three years to give it up.

willhouse Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 So does that compensation apply to us with Benning or Willie? Imagine Tort's being 'reassigned' to coach in Utica instead of being fired lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Utica Fan Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Things are about to get real interesting down here. I liked Travis' developmental style but he seemed to lack motivation behind the bench. He will be missed in Utica, if he takes the Pens job. He was a silent motivator. Too bad, I thought we had all the pieces coming together this season. Now, it seems, like we will have to start all over again. New coach, new faces, and some veterans, Mix in some decent goaltenders and a few goal scorers and it just might work. We just need to win some games when the season starts and not wait until we are 12 games in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Utica will be better this year no matter who is behind the bench..good kids coming through and some nice veteran presence,,dont worry,,couldnt be any worse than what we are going through.
