Canucks didn't make the playoffs...has a Jack Adams winner ever not made the playoffs I wonder?

Darryl Sutter should win this award. Much of the Rangers' success was from Shesterkin 

stealing games. Florida was already a very strong, undefeated team when Brunette

took over early in the season. 

[Caboose]

Gallant really sticks out as a strange nomination.

 

He had probably the single greatest goaltending performance in a decade covering up a LOT of issues.

[Caboose]

As to the award, Brunette has to get it for me. The circumstances in which he took over and to not skip a beat speak volumes.

[Rush17]

gotta be Sutter. Took a team in shambles where the fans were saying its time to blow it up and sell johnny before he leaves. 100% has to be sutter. anyone else would be insulting to the trophy. 

[King Heffy]

Sutter managed to drag a tab with multiple locker room cancers and no captain into the playoffs.  It's pretty amazing what he's done to make some people believe that his team full of gutless cowards are actual contenders.

These guys are more deserving, we were super hot down the stretch but these guys had their teams playing like top teams the entire season. If Bruce starts the season here maybe the story is different, but he didn't.

I dunno, it's not as if he's taken a plucky, rough team that's bought in and won a cup before. 

 

Oh, wait.

 

They're one of four teams left in the west, they probably get through Edmonton. Now, they probably don't beat Colorado, but getting to the final four seems like contending to me. We'll see if they manage it.

With a wee bit more sample size, he woulda been I bet.

Should’ve fired Jim Benning sooner.

Pretty sure it has never happened.  But there is a pretty good case for Bruce this year anyway in my books.  Wouldn't be surprised if it's revealed that he got a reasonable number of votes when it all shakes out.

[AriGold]

I gotta go Sutts, what a turnaround from last year.

[hammertime]

It's gotta be Sutter. They were Flaming garbage before he showed up.
