It's been reported a lot that the players all loved Capuano. Probably because he never held them accountable and told the media that they were "injured" when he was really just healthy scratching them.

KO should focus on Buffalo and forget Cappy. If he loves Cappy so much, he and his buddy Frans should have done better against Tampa.

Probably asked him because he could give an honest opinion as a former player

Multiple reports that the isles talked to Gallant three weeks ago to gauge his interest. Appears that if he was interested he would be the coach already

I mean what are they gonna say? At the end of the day, Capuano was prob a good guy, and now has ZERO income. The reality is, the never won anything with him, so how good of a coach could he have been??

Isnt there a rule that you can't "court" someone when you already have a guy under contract?

Pretty sure Florida gave them permission to meet with Gallant so I don't think that applies but I could be wrong

Nah i meant for the isles......im totally asking cause i have no idea. But, if you have a guy coaching, and under contract, are you allowed to "interview" someone else? I thought they fired Jack so they could begin the search?

Just got a call from an Islanders rep asking about tickets. Of course they wait til the day after Cappy's fired to call

I told him you get rid of Garth too, then we can talk

Hahhahah not too far from the truth. I'll never buy tickets to a game with Snow at the helm. Its a shame

- kindlyrick

Why wouldn't you be? I don't see how you could not. I took that comment from Snow as out of respect they let him go so they could start their search which was complete BS because it came out hours later they requested the meet like 3 weeks ago while Jack was still "coaching"

Right, well that makes sense. Snow is full of it, cause he was backing Capuano three weeks ago, saying "after all he was a coach at worlds".

If you want to talk to a coach who isn't under contract with another team you can regardless if your own coach is under contract

Right......i guess i misinterpretated what they said.

I think if it was up to Snow Jack would still be coaching. This execution came from above Snow
