While there was a kerfuffle regarding the Canes tweeting out about RBA being a coach for 3 years being taken as they were extending him 3 years...Friedman did say that the Canes were working a 3 year extension with RBA.

Nothing official yet, but I don't see why either party would not want to continue the relationship.

RBA didn't transform the Canes into a good team, as they were already good before he got there. He did get their SH% to go up, and I guess some intangibles.

CarolinaBudget.

Rangers f*** the budget, I do not care what the coach gets paid.

As long as he is the right coach,
Question If you are Rod do you take 1.8 in Carolina or 4.5 in the apple.
 
Coaches aren’t interested in dealing with goalies AT ALL, coaching-wise they play a different sport for all they care. Allaire has a good enough rep that they’ll be fine with him and wouldn’t say no thanks because that position comes pre-filled.
I’d appreciate it if - collectively - this board could start a whisper campaign supporting me as a “low key”, “under the radar”, “ideal candidate” for any Goaltending Coordinator or, in general, Goalie Coach type roles available now or in the future.

I’ll admit I have no experience, understanding, or even interest in the position. But it’s probably the most plum job in the world with no evaluation metrics and complete security. I’d like that.

(And, note, as there’s no accountability for the role, recommending me won’t carry any consequences).

So, thanks in advance.

Only thing I could see being the reason it doesn't come together if Canes ownership gets cheap with Rod's staff and doesn't want to re-sign them as well. I have read that Rod wants them signed first before he signs.

4.5 in the apple with the promise that your entire staff will also be hired and you'll have every single resource you need at all times. Pipe dream but I'll be dreaming.

Whomever the new coach is, he better hope the Rangers aren't losing after the first period of the first game.
Yea because that was really what was happening...it couldnt be that the fan base was fed up with the team coming out flat and unresponsive all the time.... that section of the fan base was unreasonable because the team was simply losing after the 1st period...

Next coach could fail, but much rather take my chances with a new voice to light a fire under their asses and have them ready to play from puck drop

Totally unrealistic, not even dark horses, but I actually like both Foote and McKee.

We should buck tradition and find like an ex Green Beret who played college puck and put him behind the bench. We’ll be the most mentally tough and well conditioned team in the league.

Yeah and that guy that Esposito hired from L.A.. The one with the wide ties who was always calling in sick.

You're thinking of Tom Webster. He left the Rangers because he "couldn't fly due to an ear infection" yet went to coach LA a few years later.

Then again, Esposito was more impulsive than Dolan appears to be and not a good boss to work for. Carpiniello tells the story on breakup day in 1989 after the Pittsburgh series how some lukewarm Chinese food made him start screaming about Bergeron and how much of an ass he was. He was shown the door shortly after.
