It was not an issue. imo power play was hit and miss- it may have averaged out to 9th, but it stunk for awhile. Same with our penalty kill, except it stunk for longer. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, our powerplay has always been hit and miss, though when it's hot, it's extremely hot, which is why it still finished top third in the league. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel if the team was going to move on from any of our coaches this year, it would be King. Bruce said he decided to retire. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was a Whalers fan back in the day and I remember him fighting Daniel's. One of the rare games I went too. 2 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mustard Tiger Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 Pretty sure being on the back half of life, along with getting smoked in the head with a frozen puck and potentially getting covid will make you think twice about things. Good luck Scotty, you will always be a beast 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He joined New Jersey the season after they made the finals and then his teams didn’t make the playoffs in his time there. Although that was with Deboer as head coach so that could be the reason. In Minny with Boudreau he lasted one season after missing the playoffs. That could be a case of just a poor fit though. That being said I think he should be a top target out of any coaches out there. Bowness should be target one if he’s willing to accept a associate role. If not John Stevens would be my second choice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's done a pretty damn good job in Finland as an assistant, making the final 2 years in a row. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just have a hard time with throwing folks away just based on accusations. His part of it was also dropped apparently and a grand jury only went ahead for the other 3 of them: https://www.nytimes.com/1990/06/30/sports/no-charges-for-3-capitals.html I would imagine this hire would be a group decision with the new GM and AGMs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
