Like what does he even say to his barber? "How's it goin barber, just fook my shiet up, ok?" -
I don't think hiring Yzerman will change much of anything either. There is one prescription to fix this team: Lose We need superstars, and the way you get them in today's NHL is to lose hockey games. Not saying I like it, or even agree with it, but that's what needs to be done. Coach Q probably won't change this situation at all, but if he does make us better that actually probably ends up hurting us at this point in time. When the time is right, when we have some core pieces, then we look to make a coaching change if we are still unhappy with Blash. In the meantime, Blash is good with kids and the kids are flourishing, so leave him be. Most honest guy here All you're doing is admitting to being a fair-weather/bandwagon fan... yet also claiming you know the state of the team better than most of us here who watch 60 plus RW games a season rain or shine. I'll take those opinions over yours any day.

11/6 Keep the Faith GDT - Canucks @ Red Wings - 7:30 PM ET

Correct. LGW enforces the Sith Rule of 2. For every master (Mabus) there can only be one apprentice (ME). If you vote for me I will crush all your enemies and subjugate your friends. Hockey will be banned and politics and memes will reign for 1000 years. -
This is an argument I make all the time, but in this instance I disagree with your use of it. First off, I don't believe the difference between Blash and Q coaching wise is as wide as you would purport. Secondly, winning culture is about winning games. If you don't believe Q can win games for you, it's just a move for the sake of making a move.
-
Pretty much my exact vision for this team should move forward. Swapping Blash for Q, is like swapping Helm for Cogliano... Sure Cogliano is slightly better, but you haven't moved the needle in any significant way. At least not enough to make any real difference. And our draft position in theory only gets worse. This is a selling team.
-
If you don't think Q garners more wins and only makes us "appear" more competitive, what's the point, your personal dignity? A loss is a loss. Also we arn't losing games 7 to 1.

The question is not: Do you think Coach Q is a better coach than Blash? I'd agree he probably is. The question is: Do you think Coach Q is better enough that he can take this team to the cup? If you didn't answer yes to the second question, then what's the point in hiring him? Let's pretend Blash really is as god awful as you all love to assert, and we hire Q. Coach Q immediately makes a big impact like you all believed he would. What is the magnitude of that impact? Instead of finishing 31st we finish 25th? 20th? 15th? We make the playoffs? I think he's probably a better coach, but not enough to get us into the playoffs. Any other shifts up the standings then just hurt us and our draft position. This is the rebuild everyone wanted, we must commit to the rebuild everyone wanted, this means losing.

How would you know? You don't watch games Blashill is great a developing kids, at least that's the narrative this fan base fed me starting in 2014 when I said letting go of Babcock was a huge mistake. I'm not saying Coach Q isn't a decent coach or that he doesn't know how to coach youth, I'm saying swapping out Blash for Coach Q will do nothing to remedy anything. If we fired Blash this instant and hired Q, you would all praise the hockey gods and get super hype... that hype would wear off in about a year or two when you realize we're still losing games and nothing has really changed, and then you all will turn on coach Q at that point, just like you've all done with Blash already. The problem is not with the coach, the problem is with this roster. This team is 5 years from winning anything, and unfortunately it'll probably be even longer than that. Coach Q has ZERO desire to strap himself to that, and it wouldn't do us much good anyway to hire him. He'll be an LA King soon enough. Losing, it's what's for dinner.

We've been sellers the last two years and have no superstars. We're a bad rebuilding team. Rebuilding teams are not expected to be competitive, just like we wern't expected to this year... this should come at no surprise. A Babcock/Bowman combo wouldn't make this team competitive, and neither can Blash. Coaching should be the farthest of concerns at the present time... we got a guy who can train up kids, now management needs to give him some decent kids.

Uber driver is a doosher for releasing this on the web They were relaxed and speaking candidly/frankly about their team. Tell your friends a cool story, no reason to tell the entire hockey world. -

Funny names fersure lol another interesting name on their is John James #Based Coach Q is going directly to the LA Kings, let the countdown begin. I've said this in many other threads now, and I'm guessing at this point I will be repeating myself all season, REBUILDING TEAMS LOSE, that's what they do. Ya'll have wanted to sell and rebuild for so long, and now we're in the thick of it and you suddenly don't understand why we're losing and you're upsets. Blashill was brought in because he develops kids and won with kids at the AHL level. That's LITERALLY the exact skillset you want in a coach presiding over a rebuild. But ya'll want to have your cake and eat it too... not gonna happen. We are BAD. Probably gonna be bad for a while bad. So strap in. Swapping out for coach Q is not gonna do anything for us at this point. Larkin is playing great this year - Blash gets no credit Athanasiou is playing great this year - Blash gets no credit Bertuzzi is playing great this year - Blash gets no credit Cholowski is a gift from god - Blash gets no credit Rasmussen is now turning it on - Blash gets no credit Blashill is doing essentially what was asked of him. The only kid struggling under him right now is Mantha. Welcome to rebuilding Sally's

And maybe we dont need friends, cause the friends we made along the way were inside us all along -
I mounted my horse and knocked a dude in Valentine over and got a bounty. I didn't even know about masks, I'm gonna have to just wear that all the time. Yup, I looted dead people in town and got a bounty too... I'm terrible at fighting, prolly not gonna be able to kill bounty hunters, I literally resorted to plowing into O'Driscolls with my horse at one point. What the hell do I do with my legendary bear pelt? It's sitting on the back of my horsie and I don't know what to do with it Help
