I'd have loved it if Chia was fired to look at Fenton or Futa. Now Fenton is gone
Futa will be soon too...

I'd settle for Hunter, honestly.

They are quite used to busts. McBusted, Talbust, Bustupov, Nugent-Bustkins, Bustlor Hall, Lord Larbust, etc..

Why does Paul Coffey as the skills coach bring up thoughts of Kobe Bryant teaching my white ass how to slam dunk. Need skills before being taught skill.

I don't think you understand the genius behind this move.... he played with the Oilers in the 80's.

I will say this about Coffey. Shortly after he was hired Struds said for the first time he saw a guy working with one of the d-men after practice. Matt Benning was getting one on one coaching from Coffey.

Now whether or not it was good coaching is up for debate, but at least it was happening.

I don't think he'll bring a lot, but maybe some of the younger guys are taking to a legend like Coffey.

It's not going to hurt as long as he isn't going against the actual coaching staffs game plan.

From what I gathered it was something similar to what Oates did with Nurse. Granted not to that degree, but I think it was more about where to be in certain situations to gain the most time possible

They are waiting to see if Tkachuk falls to 10 in the draft before bringing in Tikkanen.

should have brought him in when they brought in Kassian (teach him about balancing his coke habit and hockey).

Messier should have done that in-between filming commercials. What is Fuhr up to?

If we had to settle there are others better in between Futa and Hunter

I don't know how to feel about this. I mean, GG had us having good possession numbers, but be prepared for Lucic being on the first PP unit all the time..
