As an aside - I work for bosses like that at my job: complete micromanagers that interject their personal lives as some sort of motivation practice. Completely toxic.
Just don't see how anyone here can continue to push/want Cronin. I questioned the hire right off the bat when Verbeek went with someone completely new to the position over others (at the time) that were proven.
We have the potential and the talent here, but he has not come across as someone who can push the team towards any type of relevancy. Finishing one point above Eakins is supposed to be some sort of 'victory' with certain posters - even though they were both awful coaches. He seems to lack any type of line-matching, game awareness or tactical ability.
I know that we are in a rebuild and there are growing pains, but man this is starting to become frustrating. Cronin even admitting he let the group 'coach themselves' with the last while of the season basically tells me even he himself gave up on trying.
Never looked like an NHL coach. 10+ years of assisting coaching and not once was he thought of HC material until now. This clown show can't end soon enough!
