And he's been playing a lot lately. He was ready for a heavier workload but clearly not this heavy. I the long run this is good for him though. He'll be able to handle longer stretches of games with this experience behind him.

If I had a nickel for every time this team embarrassed themselves in St. Louis while a Blues player was celebrating 1000 games, etc etc...
Just amazing that you can whiff so catastrophically on three straight coaching hires.
I prefer this TBH, either a good win or an ugly loss. No more of that "look terrible for 50 minutes then rally back in the last 10" bullshit please.
Cronin's gotta go and games like this just increase the chances.

It’s time to bring in a coach who actually has a track record at the NHL level.
I’d be okay with Woodcroft
They really messed up not firing Cronin in favor of Montgomery or McClellan - not that they would have necessarily came here. But we should have attempted at least
Not sure who else is out there

This makes way too much sense and worst part is Cronin probably earned another year.
Imagine this core with David Carle.
Not happening unless we look like trash next year. If we are .500 again at this time next year, I’m not even sure he goes mid-season, probably just don’t bring him back.
this is the type of game that a coach should be fired over. wont happen because Pat is an prideful idiot and will keep Cronin around so he doesnt have to admit he made a mistake.
If we play the rest of the season like this, I give it better than 50/50 odds that he's gone.
There's no way Pat can say that he wants the team to score 250+ goals a year and then keep a coach that trots this team out night after night.
The schedule is no bueno. Other than Nashville and San Jose, we're not gonna be favored in many--if any--games down the stretch. 10 or fewer points out of the final 16 is definitely a possibility.
It was nice to see Clune walk over to Cutter with the iPad and (I'm assuming) explain his mistake to him.
I still believe that Cronin's defense-first mindset is more to blame for our awful PP than Clune. Just please don't make me apologize to Newell...

Don't worry kings fans hate Newell just as much as us. They have a bad pp too
That would be great. I’m all for getting blitzed the rest of the way at this point. Not to tank for a better draft pick but to increase the odds of GC getting fired.
It’s going to take something impressively bad for him to go. Like the last year of Eakins, I think we lost like 10 straight games to finish the year and end up with the worst record
Currently coaching the third worst power play in the NHL just up the 5 freeway, a year after they finished 11th and two years after they finished 4th. You're OK there.
