We had our chance with Montgomery.
I have a hard time seeing any other opportunities to improve coaching bigger than the one we just passed up on. Looks like management is ready to ride and die with MSL
I was thinking MSL is a stobborn coach, not wanting anyone to suggest/tell him/help him with the coaching stuff. Now I think Hugo decided it's MSL whatever happen, for the best or the worst. Well, from outside, this it how it looks.
Last year the team looked better with MoneyHands, he was like an older brother with the kids, releaving pressure from Suzuki. Now Suzuki is alone because Dach doesn't do the job. MSL still doesn't know some basic of coaching like time out or implement a system that works. Habs have the worst centerline of the NHL, Dvo who is an experienced nhler doesn't help developp the kids. By chance Heineman produce a little bit, despite that shitty team. Gally, Evans and even Anderson are doing relativly fine. Gally is the forward that works the hardest. But overall the team regress, it doesn't look good for the future.
We are still expecting some kind of miracle, a wake-up of Dach and Slaf. Or a trade that brings a center as good/or better than MoneyHand. A new player that can act as another leader in the locker room. And we need a true 1D, better than Matheson. And Savard is very slow, it's a disgrace. He was slow last year but acceptable, now he's slower.
