Anyone else hear Hayes give it to Oniell telling him to leave the studio.

Oniell wanted to go home at the regular 2pm. The news broke at almost 2pm exactly. Jeff was still wanting to go home.

and Hayes LAYED into him telling him to get out of the studio.

saw it streaming. Hayes was mad.

I've never seen Hayes that mad at Ofog.

Well I was wrong, didn't think there was a chance he was coming here, I will admit it. Did not see this coming.

If they are interviewing Boucher, did Babcock approve it to be an assistant or was it pre planned in case, pretty early to be doing this. Hmmm.

Well that rebuild was fun for 2 months wasn't it?

This will be the worst decision to affect this franchise in a long time. Just as Burke wasn't the right fit in 2008 Babcock is not the right fit in 2015. Sure he's a very good coach, but what exactly is the point of a rebuilding team having a coach of this ilk? This is another TML fast track to a rebuild.

Kessel is going to go anyway.
- BorjeFan4Ever

Maybe not.

If the general narrative on Phil is that he has all the talent in the world but a bad work ethic, wouldn't the world's greatest coach be able to fix that?

Shouldn't we at least give it a year to see if it can be fixed?

Let your big prize coach pick his own assistants I would think.
