eeeeergh Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 I think Gonchar could be a great assistant coach Was a whole lot of a better player than nolan freakin baumgartner 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warhippy Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 (edited) Literally 4 threads with a combined 42 comments of mine about why this is GD stupid, insulting to Boudreau, perpetuating the old boys club image of the front office and how this will screw this team out of a good draft pick and possibly alienate Pettersson in to wanting to leave while having a worse coaching record than Green did. So ya, this is totally going to happen because it would be about the worst and most insulting thing management and ownership could do to this team and it's fans. As we know, they do like to make us all suffer and claim it's part of the process Edited January 20, 2023 by Warhippy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should’ve just let the season ride out with Yeo. Exactly. No need to pay more people to run the bench. Let the season run out and spend the next 30+ games figuring out who should come in. Then try and get Trotz in Vancouver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeNiro Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 My hope is that offense goes down while goals against stays the same. That happens and the losses will pile up. Im sure his demands and new systems will be a shock to these guys. Can’t imagine Chaos and LOL will be able to just adapt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they haven't even tried and went to Tocchet directly, that would be nepotism (again). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could care less about who the coach is tbh Just don’t want a coaching bump that will likely take us out of the top 10. Like we are currently on pace to be a bottom 5 team, just run with it. 6-7 elite centres potentially going in the top 10, we need one of them. Bottom teams have also been winning recently. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green tried to to institute a stricter defensive structure and all it did was stifle the offence without reducing the goals against. Unless you materially change the roster I don’t see them being able to play shut down responsible hockey. Maybe Petterson, Mikheyev, Schenn, and Lazar could do it… no faith in anyone else to play that style. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.I.A.H.N Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Aqualini still trying to salvage a lost season........what an idiot! We are 2 places away from a franchise player...........2 friggin spots! And getting rid of Horvat alone should help us drop. Never mind moving Schenn and ????????? (Boeser?) We replace Horvat with one of Bedard, Carlsson or Fantilli, with just our draft pick Then we start talking about the return.............. Horvat for Juricek, and Sillinger And still say..........................Miller to the Islanders for, Bailey, Raty and a 20231st or Miller to Carolina for JK, Morrow, and a 2023-1st, then keep Horvat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not worth disgracing the franchise by allowing Tocchet into the dressing room. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
