Buppy 1,720 Report post Posted June 23, 2017 Hmm...quite the conundrum. On the one hand, once upon a time Tippett was able to squeeze quite a bit out of a (seemingly) nothing-much roster. On the second hand, over the last few years his teams have looked like they're actually trying to collect all the suck. Then there's a small part of me that hopes Tippett is eaten by CHUDs for permanently ruining everyone's ability to intelligently evaluate defensemen, but a different, crueler part of me thinks it would be even better if he came here, failed, and his legion of followers turned on him like a swarm of Africanized bees (who I assume like to turn on each other...I don't know much about bees). But then another, more rational part of me thinks he's probably better than Blashill, which then reminds the cruel part of me that it's very disappointed that "Blashole" hasn't been more widely adopted as his go-to derogatory nickname, and would welcome even the insufferableness of Tippett fans if he were to come here and succeed just so I could stop thinking about it. I may have lost count, but I think that adds up to a yes. 1 e_prime reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kickazz 5,459 Report post Posted June 23, 2017 In order to get Tippet we have to not have a coach. We have a coach. In order to not have a coach we need to fire him. Our coach isn't getting fired. Move along, nothing to see here. 3 Keep Your Stick On the Ice, krsmith17 and F.Michael reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joesuffP 1,746 Report post Posted June 23, 2017 Tippett the kind of coach that can work with the GM and have a hand in creating a roster. Would be a good move imo. Build the culture! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

xtrememachine1 795 Report post Posted June 23, 2017 I'd love to see Tippet in Detroit. He did pretty well with Dallas when he was there and got the Coyotes to the playoffs twice despite having very little talent on that roster. He always gets great play out of the goalie position too. Unfortunately, Blash isn't going anywhere anytime soon and I doubt Tippet would take a assistant coach position here. 1 krsmith17 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Would love to see what Tippet and Maloney could do with an open checkbook. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChristopherReevesLegs 7,022 Report post Posted June 23, 2017 Apparently Tippett was very upset about the Mike Smith trade and with the way Shane Doan was treated. Sounds like the now total owner Barroway and he don't see eye to eye, and Barroway wanted him out. Also worth noting... the draft is right around the corner and Arizona does not have 1. a head coach 2. a captain (although likely will be OEL) 3. a CEO 4. a president of operations 5. a #1 goalie 6. a #1 center lulz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So what you're saying is Tippett's Lost Mustache was the source of his power and we need to find it and give it to Blashill to wear like some kind of half-assed yamaka. I can get behind this. 1 Buppy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
