Good idea there's always a coaching bump so the next game Canucks lose we fire Green ... hire Laviolette get another streak and once that is done fire him and hire another coach. If we keep doing this the cup is ours 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we keep doing this the cup is ours I like this idea the best. Especially when the playoffs starts, we should fire a coach after each series win, and we should expect the team to go on a surge for every new coach, that will guaranteed us a Stanley Cup!

timberz21 Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 Kind of interesting that 4 of the last 11 coaches who won the Stanley Cup were mid-season hires. That's a pretty high average. I guess teams are taking note this season lol. Bylsma 08-09 Sutter 11-12 Sullivan 15-16 Berubé 18-19 You could almost include Quenneville who was a mid-season hire the year before the Hawks 1st cup.

Goes to show you that just because a player is 'good' doesn't make him good for the team. Glad this team drafts character as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D-Money Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 Berube was a major flop his first time as a head coach. So I wouldn't write off Hynes just yet. I think a lot of first-time NHL coaches make some mistakes in the beginning of their first job. Problem is, as long as they stay on that team with the same players, they remember those mistakes, and may second-guess the guy going forward. A fresh start on a new team can often go better for newer coaches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timberz21 Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 Weird hire, except for Hall's MVP season hasn't done much as HC, must have good connections between him and Poile, or Poile was searching for a bargain coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A fresh start on a new team can often go better for newer coaches. Berube had a few years to reflect and learn new stuff in the AHL as HC and NHL as an assistant. Hynes was fired a month ago, I doubt he had time to reflect and change anything to his approach. ...but he'll inherit a better team, that's for sure.

Connection through USA hockey. Hynes was also teammate with AGM Jeff Kealty at Boston University. Shero didn't want to fire Hynes and probably gave a good recommendation to Poile. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't necessarily have to take that long though. You screw up in the first week, and the players remember that. But yeah, the team is significantly better. Especially the D-core and in net.

#Canucks Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 (edited) I personally don’t get this move, feels like a downgrade. I hope it works out for Nashville. Edited January 7, 2020 by #Canucks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
