You are assuming we could get a better coach to come to this cluster#### organisation. I have my doubts. It's not Tocchet's fault management and ownership are douchebags.

he deserves a chance to show what he's got now he's here. it is what it is.
I am ok with that, after we tank this season

Is Tocchet going to make a force out of Joshua? Lol. Great backcheck and hit on Kane there. Too bad he didnt beat the piss out of Domi who was trying to bail early with the take down.

Great play though

I mean I haven’t seen the media like this even after we lost Tanev, Marky and Toffoli foe nothing. This was before the whole BB thing. Like screaming why are they not rebuilding, like give me a f***ing break, you guys didn’t scream why not rebuild the 8 year Benning was here and 1st year in and you screaming rebuild?

It’s absolutely f***ing bizarre how the two points where this market has lost its mind in the last 15 years are :

1) Team has bad 30 games after winning 5 straight division titles. GM wins (huge) two trades involving goalies.

2) New management bungles timing on fully deserved firing of totally lost head coach.

Meanwhile, total crickets on 8 years of the worst management regime in the last 50 years of this league.

I've been consistently critical of this organization for like 7 or 8 years. I wish I could say it was longer but I gave the previous management a couple years.

I've been extremely critical about this roster this year, the direction of the team. Critical of how JR handled the Bruce situation.

I've said that it's very likely Tocchet won't have success here because of a poor roster and because I don't know if he's a good coach.

But what I won't do is rip a coach for a gambling thing from decades ago that is a complete zero. And more than that, rip him because of some weird infatuation with a previous coach who deserved to be fired.
I have zero issues with bruce being let go. It was a classless method but I expect nothing less from Aqua down

There is nothing to suggest Tocchet is qualified to take this team to a higher level. He has zero coaching pedigree

I agree but this isn’t really the place where those fans exist, majority of HF despised Benning but we’re the minority compared to casuals.

Again, for the thousandth time, because some things are BIGGER than hockey. You can argue about how easy our media went on management for hockey stuff but it's pretty clear why things are intense right now. It's not all about hockey. People here take hockey things disturbingly personally and that's not the way it works on the outside.

All Domis are punks. Daddy Domi was the biggest punk.
Credit to Joshua for showing restraint when he could have driven Domi into the ice there…

And…..More Memes

Because of his gambling? Im genuinely curious…I only know the basic media about him which I would say is mildly distasteful but i haven’t seen anything that would give me that strong of an opinion on him.
He did things on the ice that show his true self. Research him a bit and you will see

You can’t really do this because of the fact your organization is totally in shambles if he leaves in six months, but Pettersson should be off PP1.
