The Magician Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 3 goal leads aren't insurmountable.... Welp thanks Chicago I look like a retard now I never would have thought that of all teams Chicago would be the ones to choke a 3-0 lead. Crawford's been sooooo shaky lately.

Tambellini's Wrist Shot Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Welp thanks Chicago I look like a retard now I never would have thought that of all teams Chicago would be the ones to choke a 3-0 lead. Crawford's been sooooo shaky lately. It happens to everybody. Even the likes of Chicago and LA. Remember when Johnny Hockey got a Hatty against the Kings in third period to tie the game 3-3?

WHL rocks Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Huge pressure on Quenneville to win this year. If he doesn't win another Cup i predict he'll be fired. Look for Mike Babcock in Chicago next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUPERTKBD Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 So I go and shoot my mouth off about Minny being too good defensively to lose and Devan Dubnyk wakes up thinking he's back in Edmonton... Not only that, but Ryan Suter looks like Shane O'Brien all game long. The only thing that gave the Wild hope was that on this Voodoo, or whatever night, Duncan Keith spent the entire game channeling his inner Chris Campoli...

Overcome!" How was the salary cap a problem for Chicago last year when they lost to the Kings in the playoffs. How has the cap been a problem this year? They've had a stacked team over the past 2 seasons. The fact is mgmt expected this team to win last year as they do this year. If Chicago doesn't win the Cup this year again Q will probably be fired. Particularly if the best coach in hockey by a country mile is available. Your Clint Eastwood quote may work for motivating army recruits but this is a pro hockey team that is expected to win it all. If that doesn't happen 2 years in a row changes have to be made. Good coaches are let go all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hardly the coach's fault. If they lose this year it would almost certainly have more to do with poor goaltending than it would coaching. Chances of Q being fired are very slim I'd say.

UFCanuck Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Elite dman Suter was schooled by Hossa. Shorty for Toews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Mind Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Elite dman Suter was schooled by Hossa. Shorty for Toews. Hossa made it look easy. Tough one for Dubnyk to let in though. Managed to get across in time, just to have the puck bounce off his stick and in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that doesn't happen 2 years in a row changes have to be made. Good coaches are let go all the time. Hard to keep a stacked team when you're up against the cap. Babcock has only one cup as a coach, Coach Q has won two. I use that quote because it reminds me of his coaching style. Unlike AV who has one plan and won't deviate, Coach Q will change his strategy when needed. The Boston finals proves this. He at first was playing Boston's style. When he found that wasn't effective, he changed to what works best for Chicago, and they won a cup. If he wasn't fired for two first round exits, why would you fire him now? Like I said, it's not the coaches fault if they don't win. He's not the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
