Damn; Shanaban had such a nice ring to it. You can't replace that.

i did not start the topic,it was a red wings fan that started it,so please stop taking it out on me and the last i check that this was a place to discuss the detroit red wings,NHL, and Hockey in general

Trotz seems like a good person and a guy who is devoted to the game. If he is fired I hope he can one day find peace in his search for Moose and Squirrel.

He's starting to mature, but you have to remember, he's 26, it's not like he's an old man. He was thrust into the spot light at the age some people still need their moms to wake them up to get to high school.

He'll have no issue finding another job. That guy has done incredibly well despite having scant resources to work with. I'm not sure he'd do as well in Toronto, where the pressure valve is turned up to 11. I'd love to see what he could do with all the talent in Edmonton, though. Talk about a change of venue! I hate to say it, but if we ever lost Babcock, I'd hope Kenny would give a long hard look at Trotz for our squad. He's a coach.

As long as it's not Blashill, I don't really care.

Out of the frying pan and into the fire for Shanny. He traded the second most scrutinized job in hockey for the first most scrutinized job in hockey. Geesh, we get it already, you're not afraid of the pressure!

I hope not=( We already have to deal with stupid dallas now.

The Leafs are golfing The playoffs are upon us Suck it Leafs, losers

Not to derail this thread, but anyone bashing Mule's play hasn't been watching him. Yes he's snake-bitten but he's had a ton of chances and he's playing well, driving the net, going to the tough areas, etc.

Exactly. What we saw from Goose wasn't typical production IMO. He was on pace for over 40 goals and I think he's closer to a 30 goal guy. So, it's not like something's wrong with his play now, in fact it's more normal than it was when he was on his rampage.

I wish no neck could stay:-( he's a great coach imo, and think he'd have us back in playoffs if not next year, the year after. With Jones and Jarnkrok young up and comers and Webber, future looks bright...let's go pRed Wings

Finally ... things are trending up.

It makes an appearance for the All-Star Game, I think.

Not shaking hands after a playoff series is classless as it comes. Slashing a player relentlessly is the same. The video shows diving at a Louganis level and some ppl still like the guy ? How , yeah he's good at hockey but he sucks at being a classy hockey player and I do believe his antics are Avery Lvl. Look at the been shot in the head reaction to a ref barely touching him

I'm a teacher and I just used this link to rick-roll one of my student's parents. Sent an e-mail telling them in honor of us possibly facing each other in the first round we should do a friendly wager and why don't they enjoy (as a sign of good faith) this great video compilation of crysby's greatest moments. I can't wait to read their response.

Trotz takes a year off, Babcock decides to step down after next season, Trotz takes over. Him and Tippet are the only 2 active head coaches I'd consider over Babcock.

It would be interesting to see him in Toronto or Edmonton. I think those are the teams that need to look at Trotz. It's rough to see this guy lose his job...I like him, but I can barely tolerate the Sexual Predators. Hope he lands on his feet.

I wasn't directing that comment at any specific one post. Like I said, I think he's the best player in the league but I still pretty much cant' stand him. But I also don't go seeking out videos about him that will only irritate me. Especially when one of the biggest complaints is about how much attention he gets. It's like drinking spoiled milk repeatedly and then asking someone else to drink it. "Doesn't this taste awful! Here, have some!" I prefer to go the route of "He Who Shall Not Be Named" when it comes to Crosby.

Yes - Detroit and Columbus hold all the tie breakers with Washington and NJD.

Roy and Cooper did admirable jobs but also walked into underachieving teams loaded with talent. Babcock taking the Griffins to the playoffs is miraculous and he is long overdue for this.

Ron Maclean was a weather man before he became one of the faces of HNIC. I am going to restrain myself from saying anything about your earring and tatoo comment...

I personally believe Nyquist will be a 60 point guy before long...add in Pulkkinen and and a 1st, no thanks.
