He's gonna have to molest half the roster to get fired.

 

[Dennis Reynolds]

Elite thread.

I forgot Geoff Ward and Ralph Krueger ever existed.

 

[Randy Butternubs]

Working on his resume to be Bedard's future coach.

2022-23 Season

Now that the team is showing a pulse again it seems like he is safe for the rest of the year.

Honestly he was probably safe regardless barring like a 10 game losing streak or something like that if only because he's the 4 nations coach this year.

2023-24 Season

 

[Khelandros]

2024-25 Season

I believe that is every team except for Tampa.

@Khelandros you left out Mike Babcock and CBJ

If you are only there for a minute, does it really count?

My wife says no.

Mike Sullivan's failure is old enough to start kindergarten in a few months

Maybe that's why kindergarten kyle got hired

 

[Malkinstheman]

I dont know why guys want Sullivan fired. That wont change anything

I'll take 2-2-1 at this point if FSG only allowed a co-coach

 

[Sidney the Kidney]

He's gonna have to molest half the roster to get fired.

And even then, if he restricts it to just the European players he's fine.

From Rossi today. Yes, it's Rossi, but it addresses some things that have been discussed at times here and elsewhere:

FSG is fairly loyal to coaches it’s assessed to have the goods, though. That’s proven true with the Boston Red Sox and Liverpool Football Club, and the vibe I get is FSG wants Mike Sullivan here for the duration of his current three-season contract. And I know Dubas wants that, because he wasn’t willing to let Sullivan walk this summer, despite having autonomy from FSG to make a change behind the bench.
...
Sullivan keeps appearing on everybody’s hot-seat lists. His isn’t even warm.

A regulation win in New York could propel the Penguins into the Eastern Conference’s second wild-card slot.

Are there any more Mike Sullivans in the Pittsburgh area? - because, as we all know, if you fire one you have to find another.

I can't even escape this dude watching international hockey. Hopefully 4th pace finish in that stupid four nations tournament looms.

Joke franchise. We're seriously looking at the possibility of 5 first round losses followed by 5 playoff misses

I think USA wins, they got the best defense, very mobile, and the best goaltending in the tournament.

You know what they say: "if you don't change anything, then that's stick-to-it-iveness, you can't be fooled again." Or something.

I don't know if anyone has seen the John Woo masterpiece, Broken Arrow.

There's a scene where Howie Long has to pretend he's dying, and the moaning noise he makes as he "dies" is basically how I feel every time I watch a game this year.

John Travolta trying to tank the missile that's about to kill him at the end is Sullivan trying to make the playoffs

Lol we have the worst owners.

Remember when everyone said that FSG was going to be ruthless and not accept failure?

You idiots.
