I didn't comment based on what I didn't know. I only stated that I heard his reputation with Vancouver wasn't very good. I didn't watch that many games to make a determination myself. You shouldn't comment based on what you don't know, unless you extensively watched the Rangers until Vigneault.
He forced a trade of Miller, misused Hayes. They developed in spite of him mostly due to the fact that they eventually were given minutes, despite the clear friction there between player and coach. I'm also glad to know that Buchnevich and DeAngelo, two players who've developed into top half/third of the league players under Quinn are "no one else."
A trade that looks pretty good for both teams. Ranger fan here that definitely is a bit jealous of the Flyers having those two players especially the latter.Schenn for Frost and Farabee looking pretty smart.
If he misused Hayes so bad, why did he agree to come to Philly to play under AV?
If they are gonna go goals per game. Newsy Lalonde has 125 goals in 99 games and Joe Malone has 143 goals in 126 games. You also have a lot of 1 goal per game guys like Sieloff with 2 in 2 and 4 other random players with 1 game and 1 goal.
You are trying to misrepresent what I said. It is a fact that in season 2 of his career Hayes was publicly called out by Vigneault. He didn’t call out any player publicly in his tenure the way he called out Hayes, and it wasn’t all that close. He refused to answer 99% of media questions. Calling out Hayes was one of a few exceptions. He also scratched him later in that season for a playoff game to give a spot to Vigneault’s friend that isn’t an NHL caliber player. You can’t tell me that there wasn’t friction there between player and coach.
I didn’t say that they didn’t repair their relationship later on. It probably doesn’t hurt when you offer the player an amount of money that no other team in the league was going to approach. And quite frankly, Hayes best hockey was his half season under Quinn, not anything under Vigneault, who has coached him all but 1 season of his career.
Who cares about Frost...I want to hear more irrelevant posts about how AV in the past allegedly didn't use young players properly....that's the main thing....Hey...what about that Morgan Frost, huh?

It was a joke lol
You're kidding on Frost right? Tolvenen had some of the best pure hands in the entire draft and is putting the KHL through the shredder - on par with, or eclipsing what Tarasenko, Kucherov, Kuznetsov did at the same point. He's breaking games open himself.
Wasn't Farabee their own pick? Or was that O'BrienSchenn for Frost and Farabee looking pretty smart.

Yeah then that was a killer trade. Schenn is good but this works out well for PhillyFarabee was STL's 2018 pick
O'Brien was the Flyers pick

They got themselves a Cup. Hopefully we get 1 in the Frost/Farabee era. Time will tell.
A crying shame, eh?The only one it didn't work out for was Hextall.
