exactly...good coaches won't be lining up to work with our roster which is currently in shambles I can't stand Willie but I am not sure who is a candidate and would be interested. I don't think Green is a great fit.

This team is going to have another bad season, regardless of coach and draft lottery results. Change probably comes after next season when the expectation is that Bo, Sven, Boeser, Golodblin, etc. take the reins and need some new direction

this from someone who hasnt a clue on coaching.... your post was meant to pick another fight with me again today. You didnt even get what I was saying

youre obviously high again
- SMBDragon

You are a self -centered idiot. My post had nothing to do with you or your tiny shriveled balls.

Torts looks like a genius right now. Said Canucks were stale and he was right. Took Columbus from bottom feeder to the top of the conference. Has a Calder candidate rookie, Team scoring and he listened to his players when they told him to calm down after a team meeting.

I wanted to give Torts another year. I like the way his teams play and like most here, wanted to see some more grit/toughness

Sullivan also has better players (Crosby, Malkin, Letang) to work with. This isn't a slight against him, as Bylsma dumbed down the talent in Pittsburgh. However, Green wouldn't have that much to work with in Vancouver. He'll be a good coach somewhere, but I don't think the situation is right for either side.
- TheRollingPuck

what many dont know about sullivan is the previous year he was on the Hawks staff when they last won the cup. He said he learned so much about coaching from it.

THe coach that pre-existed before sullivan had those same players with crappy results.

WTF does that have to do with being a good teacher? You're a teacher aren't you? That's like saying Scotty Bowman was a poopty player so he must therefore be a poopty coach? Which we know isn't true.

You don't have to be able to execute something in order to be good at teaching. This holds very true in golf and hockey. Two sports I'm familiar with.

You don't have to be a great goalie in order to be a successful Goalie coach either. Look at Stephanie Waite. The best goalie coach in the league.

My main gripe is I don't get why we keep hiring all these formers players to our staff. Go for the best option, if it happens to be a former player of the organization, great, but FFS get the best guy out there.

We have had three different coaches in 5 years and none of them have made a difference.

Time to fire the players. Edler Tanev and the twins are bad for this team

players have been changed more frequently though

These two games in China remind me of Wag The Dog. Deflect the attention away from two teams that have struggled.

Should be Pittsburg and Edmonton with the two biggest names in hockey.

It sucks because listening to Hank today he has seem to take the ambassador role and instead of maybe looking to play for a more competitive team he will spend his time shaking hands instead.

It's about branding and marketing opportunities. The LA blog has some good info on it.

enough with Pitt, Chicago being in everything.

I really think they chose Van/LA for 2 reasons. The first being geographical relation to China. The second, competitive teams would really oppose the travel as it could have adverse effects on the start to their season. With VAN (and some extent LA) who cares?

You're the one trolling idiot.

I havent ever trolled....youre the one spewing insults here.
So you just proved yourself the Idiot
