Judging by the stats, it doesn't look like he was totally over the illness that kept him out of the last game. 3 goals on 26 shots.

He was benched for games 3 and 4, for some stupid reason, and then was supposed to start game 5 but didn't even dress because he was sick.

Have to give Weight credit for calling these lazy, self pity little shrinking violets out. I like Weight he may not be the best coach in the world but I appreciate him at the very least telling it like it is.

He's a breath of fresh air and I loved him as a player but I think we're better suited with a more experienced coach in the long run.

On that subject, I know Hitchcock is the most respected available coach...but it would be shortsighted for us to ignore that he's well known for riding his vets and not giving young guys much playing time. I'm afraid that if we hired him we would see guys like 13/66/72 struggle to get playing time.

well hopefully they win the anders lee kanjam

I agree. No sugar coating from Weight.

Hitchcock would be good in terms of defense, but the Isles need someone willing to work with young talent. I would pass on Hitchcock.

Problem is that they need someone to work on the defense too

Pick your poison.
