Laviolette. The Wings haven't fired a coach mid season since '85-'86....

 

[NyQuil]

I’m going to add neither (for this season).

 

[Iggys Dome]

Rags will fire Laviolette then Detroit will scoop him up

Fine for me, anyone but the penguin at this point.

 

[Machinehead]

Laviolette might be gone after the break.

Firing him is a bandaid at best, but the team is getting trucked. It's bad optics to not do it at a certain point.

 

[Pablo El Perro]

Lalonde has photos

 

[BlueSeal]

There's been enough drama with the Rangers already. With that said... absolutely the Rangers.

 

[centipede2233]

It’s the only option an incompetent gm has, press the fire coach button when in despair. Rinse and repeat.

 

[LevelingSolo]

Lalonde is not an NHL coach

 

[WolfgangPuck]

Rangers look awful. They have the talent and started off strong this season Coach Lav is the next to go

 

[Megustaelhockey]

Lalonde is not an NHL coach

Drury is not an NHL GM.

 

[Bouboumaster]

I asked to my dog and he told me that neither of them will coach their respective teams next year

Laviolette will be the first to go, this very season

During the summer, not before, Detroit will clean house and both Lalonde and Yzerman are getting fired

Yzerman ain't getting fired lol.

 

[Bouboumaster]

Yzerman ain't getting fired lol.

My dog said so

I am a humble messenger

Well, at least you own up to this being senseless.

 

[DaveG]

I think if Lalonde is canned it'll be an off-season move.

Lavi will likely happen in-season, probably around the 4 nations break.

 

[Sun God Nika]

Rangers issues arent Laviolette but he will get fired in an attempt to get a bump out of the team.

If it happens tho, you would look like a goddamn fool tho, after a post like this

About as ridiculous as you screaming for Josh Roy to be ranked in the Top 20 in every prospect vote thread this summer, I'm sure.

Now do tell me more about the internal pressure on Yzerman's job. A handful of 1-2 year deals to depth players in UFA is a definite sign of a GM on the hot seat...

Joshua Roy, before entering the season, was a sure fire player on the line-up
But than the season began, and he was to reajust our expectation for this season at least

The Habs are about to pass the Red Wings in the rebuild race, that should be enough to get your ass canned IMO

By "Our" expectation, you mean "Your" expectation, and you had to readjust it because it was unrealistic in the first place.

Now factor in that the Habs have had three lottery picks in the past 7 drafts compared to Detroit's zero, and even those don't look all that fantastic when you consider Slaf isn't living up to 1OA status and KK isn't even in the organization anymore. Demidov is hopeful I guess, but oddly enough Montreal actually looks a lot like Detroit a couple years ago where their rebuild was centered around good young wingers and defenders and their organizational depth at center is shit outside their 1C. (Suzuki/Larkin)

Nevermind that you appear to have replicated our Zadina over Hughes blunder with one of your own in Reinbacher over Michkov... Congrats on that.

Still failing to see how any of this backs up your prediction that Yzerman's firing is imminent.

Roy had torched the minors, was arguably the second best player behind Bedard at the World Junior and was one of the best player in Laval
It appears that he's in a weird place: too strong for AHL but bot good enough for the NHL
Saying that he was going to Play this year wasn't unrealistic at all; unless you're the one person in the World that saw coming the fact that Heinemann of all people would overtake his spot this year?
Of course you didn't, because your hockey takes are terrible bro

The Habs are about to pass Detroit because Yzerman didn't went all in for a rebuild, and now you're stuck with a mediocre team because of him. You're on the Buffalo Road.

You can shit on Slaf all you want, but he'd probably still go first that year yet again. It would be between him, Cooley... And Lane Hutson, which we also got.

Yzerman firing is imminant because your team suck ass.

Lalonde, just a feeling
