Lol watching midwits try to navigate their way around the most basic questioning of their mindless worship of authority is really something.
For reference, I flat out said my "coaching" would consist of
"To be fair, my coaching would pretty much consist of vaping on the bench and not starting lineups with Matt Irwin and Craig Smith and half dead Nic Dowd in them while letting the assistants do the rest"
From this you somehow manage to get
To answer your silly question I think the team would probably be last in the league,
So we'd get one of Bedard, Michkov or Fantilli? Tragic
even more injured due to mismanagement,
Which completely aligns with my stated decision of not riding injured players as much as I can.
would likely lose some key staff
Yes, we'd have lost Blaine Forsythe and other assistants from the organization for sure, probably the biggest difference between what actually transpired. Especially if I just let them do whatever they want, assistant coaches really hate that
would suffer financially from lost revenue
would most of this lost revenue come from the lower playoff success or me not making 5 million dollars like Lavi was? Perhaps not wanting pricy vets everywhere and playing ELC or bridge level contract young players wherever possible?
would have several players demanding trades
Like which ones, hypothetically? Burakovsky, Stephenson, Siegenthaler, Sprong? Maybe Samsonov or Vanecek? Maybe I'd manage to even piss of Alexeyev in his short time with the org enough that someone like Orlov might take note. Perhaps Kuznetsov would be on the outs too, allegedly asking for trades and whatnot? Or someone irreplaceable like Mantha? Would be especially tragic if we lost honest long term soldiers like Orlov, Eller or Hathaway, or can you imagine if Backstrom decided to retire or something instead of putting up with my stupidity smh. Gah, I'd be a plague on this organeyezation, I can see it now.
But the fantasy is "I would play the correct lines every time, and that would win the Cup or at least improve the team".
You should probably work on your reading comprehension instead of scouring the dictionary for big words like Dunning Kruger once a day tbh. I said I'd be a half assed coach lol, that's the point
As if that's all there is to it.
Just curious what 5 million dollars a year gets you vs a guy off the street in your opinion. Would it also come with you valiantly defending me before the angry mobs who don't get it (since they're not in the game duh) as well?
