Re: GDT: Blues v Lightning 7pm FSMW
Who could they hire today that would improve the team? Laviollete and Tortorella didn't improve their teams much if at all. I'm not saying they shouldn't fire Murray. They should. But they can't just turn the team over to Mike Kitchen again. They need to replace Murray with somebody who will improve the team.
I think they're going to wait until after the holidays to do anything.

It's a little early to say Laviolette didn't improve the Flyers, but I agree nothing will happen until at least January.

Re: GDT: Blues v Lightning 7pm FSMW
Who the heck ever heard of Dan Bylsma before last year? Who the heck was Bruce Boudreau and where did he come from? There are coaches out there that we don't know about that can make a major impact with a young team. You don't have to hire a former NHL reject head coach. Hire a young up-and-comer.ksbluesfan wrote:Who could they hire today that would improve the team? Laviollete and Tortorella didn't improve their teams much if at all.

If you believe the rumblings, nothing will save the Flyers. They'll have to trade either either Jeff Carter or Scott Hartnell.section319 wrote:It's a little early to say Laviolette didn't improve the Flyers, but I agree nothing will happen until at least January.
A guy like Therrien might make sense for the Blues, but they probably shouldn't sign him for longer than 2 years.

Sounds good. Sooner or later they will pull the trigger. I just don't want to see them promote Rick Walsmley just because he's the next in line.

Yeah, Therrien doesn't sound too bad. And yeah I heard about. The Carter and Hartnell rumour over at the asylum, so I assume there is actually substance to this story?ksbluesfan wrote:If you believe the rumblings, nothing will save the Flyers.

I don't know if it's true or not. I never would have pegged Hartnell as being gay. It's obvious with Carter.section319 wrote:Yeah, Therrien doesn't sound too bad. And yeah I heard about.

I heard from a VERY reliable source that the NHL is like 65% gay. Gay men are naturally attracted to hockey for some reason.

Re: GDT: Blues v Lightning 7pm FSMW
Don't hire an assistant on the staff of the head coach you just fired. How is that going to change things? You need a new philosophy, not the same philosophy from a different guy.northwest dave wrote:Wasn't that Mike Kitchen?JWatt (formerly PMS) wrote:Who the heck ever heard of Dan Bylsma before last year?

I'm trying to start the Carter-and-Hartnell-as-lovers rumor. The one you heard probably has more substance.section319 wrote:Being gay?
