Wow. It shocks me how out of touch some posters are. Accept the lip service and enjoy it when we give Carolina a lottery pick.

a lottery pick?Wow. It shocks me how out of touch some posters are. Accept the lip service and enjoy it when we give Carolina a lottery pick.
The GM is the real problem here and not the coach.You have to start with the coach. I think most everyone can agree on that.
Then the players and the GM.
bahaha not with this soft entitled rosterSheldon Keefe sounds like a coach who doesnt tolerate soft teams. Clune said he has just the same amount of intensity as the players does.
So yeah, this is the move to make.
speaking of out of touch, that can't happen because the pick is protectedWow. It shocks me how out of touch some posters are. Accept the lip service and enjoy it when we give Carolina a lottery pick.
The sooner Babcock goes, the sooner Dubas goes! Dubas assembled a roster of wimps, and overpaid his players that he can't even get a proper back-up.
look at that marlies rosterYeah true
look at that marlies roster
it has everything
size/skill/grit/balance
I don't even care if it's his fault at this point. I think he's a huge problem. But even if he's not, something has to change, and until a coaching change happens to see if that's the issue whatever the problem is won't be fixed.
Some people think the coach, some think the GM and some think the collection of players. Some think all together.The GM is the real problem here and not the coach.
All we got to do is look at the third line they iced tonight. WTF is the only proper reaction.
That's the best they can do?
Then Keefe would be in for a rude awakening when he works with this group of snowflakes.look at that marlies roster
it has everything
size/skill/grit/balance
The whole no NHL experience narrative for Keefe not being worthy of the gig is terrible. How else should he get the experience?Half the Leafs' were coached by Keefe. Keefe has done almost nothing but win for years. From all accounts the players all love him and respect him. Rich Clune said, earlier today, that he would go through the end boards for Keefe.
Well, where I live, I saw the GM get canned before the coach once before.Some people think the coach, some think the GM and some think the collection of players. Some think all together.
Regardless, there is always a chain of events. Before you can get to the next level, you have to start at the first.
That would be the coach. Then you can check that problem off the list. Next level.
You can’t teach compete or grit. Size doesn’t equal it - we see that night in, night out with AM, Goat, etc. It’s simply innate, no coach will change that. That is the fault of Dubas for building solely around skillYeah the main roster has no flexibility for change.
At the very least, Keefe could come in and maybe change the mentality/mindset of the team that we have to play a much more different style than we're doing.
But obviosuly I'm not gonna putting much money on that happening.
for me it's pretty simple ULFHere is the conundrum ... coaches get too much blame for losses and too much credit for wins.
So is a coach really important.
They don't make dumb decisions on the ice.
They don't make mistakes on the ice.
They don't screw up on the ice.
additionally,
They don't make good decisions on the ice.
They don't make good plays on the ice.
They aren't making any impact on the ice.
Regardless, it points to firing a coach isn't a bad choice if they don't make an impact on the ice.
ehhh ,,,,maybe some when they see the escrow claw backs.Then Keefe would be in for a rude awakening when he works with this group of snowflakes.
wait - that’s actually too much credit, these guys aren’t triggered by ANYTHING.
