Probably time for him to move on. He's a great coach, but he's been with Carolina a long time, think he started as an assistant in 2010 or 2011. He's probably done all he can do for that organization. Seattle could do a whole lot worse than Brind'Amour.
And it has to be frustrating working for Dundon with all of his dumb rules about contracts and overall how cheap he is. Rod can go to Seattle, become the highest paid coach in the league, and have a GM that knows the exact style of team he wants without ownership restrictions. It is about as perfect as a match as you can get.

I wonder how much of Lindy's success last year was Bruno... if it was as much as it looks today, that'll end up a terrible hire.

Taking coaching retreads to a new level, nice work Buffalo.
Ruff back in Buffalo is just hilarious at this point

Weren't people joking about Ruff behind hired as a cruel joke? Did they even interview anyone? What a fail

Oh man... I can't think of a worse coach for Buffalo. A mediocre retread for a mediocre team that needs to find an identity. What a tragedy for that fanbase. Looks like the streak is going to extend to 15 years at least before they have a chance to pull the plug again.

Heard a funny story about Brindamour in Winnipeg yesterday. Family we spoke to are good friends with Seth Jarvis parents and apparently Rod tested first in the fitness testing over all of the players (I know rod the bod but still that’s impressive).
Another story was that schiefele refuses to swear and tells guys to frick off while on the ice in scrums.
Also, Winnipeg is the ugliest city in Canada by a mile I’ve been to them all. The downtown is roughhh.

Maybe he should fire himself? I am not saying these players were going to help them in the long run which is the way Seattle should be building, but allowing Geekie and Sprong to walk after the seasons they had is hilariously bad.

I’ve been of that mind for the whole time that Brunette and his system is what made the Devils thrive

Scheifele is "different" and not in a good way.
He really gives "kid who got homeschooled by extra religious parents and has a distorted view of reality" vibes.
I'll never forget the stuff he said after he nearly killed Jake Evans.
Can you tell them that Seth needs to have his eyes pushed wider apart... I'm not talking Anna Taylor-Joy apart, but normal apart.
Didn't see chatter on this. The Arizona limitations are interesting... Notice has to be given by Dec 31, 2027 that Arizona is to be reactivated. By that time the arena must be at least 50% done (by what standard?) and the NHL has sole approval. Along with this only 20% of the team can be sold, 49% of the arena, ownership must be maintained for 5 years. So basically we know in 3.5 years if there is going to be an Arizona team and the NHL has a lot of control. This is a put up or shut up set of conditions that if successful, they are happy. If not, they get to choose a new owner in 2028 or 2029.
Just saw the Dallas Vegas score and lol - Oettinger channeling his inner Georgiev there, 73 percent success rate. But still not enough, need suck even harder.

Not Great, Bob!
Anya Taylor-Joy was great in Ice Age.
This is perfectly setup for a 3 year extension in year 2 only to be fired at the end of the season.

NJ don't have to pay him anymore since he signed elsewhere so they must be happy.
Sabres fans are surprisingly OK with the hire, they must know something we don't.
That being said Ruff wasn't the main reason for the Devils' lack of success.

You've been to ALL 7,986 Canadian cities ?
Wow, I don't know if that's more impressive or the fact that wipaneg is the ugliest of all of them.
They know he's not granato and that's all they care about - much like when we got rid of his unqualified dildo brother.
