I don't start new threads, WD has to go.

You can't blame Willie for steaming pile of shiite that this lineup is made up of. Relying on a rookie center and a struggling sophomore to be the catalysts of your secondary scoring. Vrbata is nothing without a good center. Weber and Bartakowski should have no place in any regular top 6. Both terrible.

how can you blame Willie? I get that yeah he makes dumb mistakes at times but this team did the same crap with Tort's then we fired him now fire Willie? When are we going to start holding the players accountable? To lazy to post it but go look at the stats from the last 10 games from Higgins, Burrows, Vrbata, Dorsett, Horvat,etc etc etc

It's not his fault, but he is the first one to take a fall for this garbage. Simultaneously, JB will begin moving pieces. This is the game when things shake loose. It has to be.

I heard that Willie D is also a Muslim...how;s that make you feel?

Who forced him to not only play Weber, but use him on the PK?

 

Unacceptable and I've had enough of the Weber experiment.  The sample size is large enough to prove he'll never be an NHLer.

Why get rid of Willie? The guy has coached and won at every level, Give him an NHL roster and see what he can do. Bet you the outcome is much different.

Pleanty of injuries, pitiful defense, no second line, the team is in a rebuild/retool phase and you expect this guy to win a stanley cup? Get your head/heads out of your arses. The young guys are in no need to be rushed in developing, hence why Virtanen is going to WJC and perhaps McCann aswell. This team is going to need a couple years to work out the kinks and get back on track. If he had our 2010/11 roster and was failing, then yes he should be fired, but no, he is left with the remnants of the Gillis era.

Weber on the PK.  Unless he's being instructed to intentionally lose games, that is enough to suggest the guy has no ability to identify an NHLer.  That is a huge issue when we have a bunch of kids trying to find their roles on the team.

If I have to explain to you how WD has been a bad coach, then you are one of the lost ones. His constant errors with the PP, line changes, lack of timeout usage etc. He is by know means the only culprit, but he is the easiest, most immediate change possible.

It really doesnt matter right now. We have no chemistry on 2nd and 3rd lines, the Sedins questions our system structure. Ride Willie out for the year, then see if we can create an identity in the offseason. 

Add to this list the vets that Willie relied on last year, Higgins Burrows Verby Edler Tanev Hammer have all been horrible this year, so much for showing the kids how to play. Absolutely no push back. 

Thing is if Torts could not toughen up this "core", then nobody will. These guys need to go and get some fresh blood in there then next year we can hopefully have a few guys who actually care.
