It's hard to teach playing in front and going to the net.
That's what he does best.

Knight played both games against the Marlies and I think every goal against he had almost no chance. This team is poorly coached. Don’t get why he played Knight both games on a back to back either. Their defensive structure is a joke.

do you think zito would allow kinnear to spoil an asset like that? I don't know for certain but based on the type of organizational changes we've seen under him, I very much doubt that.
there's got to be some other reason.

It's pretty funny how people here continuously find scapegoats and just run with it, pretending as if they are the only thing wrong with the team. Remember Yandle? It's especially funny though when I see people dunk on coaches (i.e. Tallas, Kinnear). Like do you really now anything about hockey coaching in general, not to mention what is going on in the Panthers locker room? Is there some public livestream I haven't seen?

"Between the explosiveness in his skating and his rapidly quick shot release — Devine turned some heads at the Panthers IceDen."

Coming off an NCAA title with the Denver Pioneers, Jack Devine could be drafted in the late-second or early-third round this NHL Entry Draft.

"One thing that may make prospective teams hesitant is Devine’s lack of explosiveness, and that he could show a little more offensive output."
IMO The style of game he plays, skating won't be that called upon.

So who's right then?
Average it out to he's an averagely explosive guy?
2 years should be long enough to improve it?

I imagine that’s the plan the second this NCAA season is over.
If some of these late round picks pan out for us (and it looks promising), that'd compensate a bit for our lack of first- (and second-) rounders.
Only wish our Dmen drafting was better - we have some guys who could eventually provide depth but nobody with any real upside. Right now, only Benning looks like he could be a 2nd pairing guy, and even that is highly uncertain with his size.

There’s gotta be someone better than Kinnear. This guy might be one of the worst coaches on the planet.
Wasn't it two years ago Charlotte made the final eight?
From the post-game locker videos on Twitter It looked like the players all loved coach.
Another SH goal against Charlotte. The team just sucks led by the moron coach.

What makes this guy a bad coach? The most I've ever seen anyone elaborate is "he's just bad"
Knight gets pulled after 2 goals on 4 shots where one goal was completely an open net due to the great system the coach has in place where the players do nothing and then the second goal Knight has a guy who is right in his face and none of the Checkers do a damn thing to move him. Great coaching again.

What makes him good guys? Any insight? I value results and the guy has been an overall loser for Charlotte.

Actually Charlotte has some of the best results from any of our AHL iterations.
Doesn't mean Kinnear is good or bad.
