Confirmed with Link: Ian Lapperriere out as Phantoms coach

[CerpinTaxt]

What’s Mandog up to these days?

Please no! We have enough lame posters on here we don't need boxcar to come back

Didn’t DB just finish saying that Lappy had done a great job with the Phantoms and was making noise in the playoffs? Why was this loss in 5 games (if it even was) to the Bears the critical point?

Why is it that the people in charge can’t go two days in a row without saying something stupid and/or immediately contradicting themselves?

One of the writers said it may have been Lappy's decision

Oh god.. that’s even worse.

This franchise enjoys Cleveland Steamers, for certain. And Laperriere is definitely a Cleveland Steamer.

Just when you think they do something right, reality hit you that they are about to do something dumb again.

 

[DownieFaceSoftener]

I didn't know this was possible. I'm going to hit f5 and see if this thread still exists after.

This team is a caricature of itself.

Monkey's paw ass wish, whoever made the wish to get rid of Lappy as phantoms head coach.

This team is a caricature of itself.

Let's please keep mind that tweet came from Jamey Baskow, who is a very special boy.

 

[philly_28]

This is satire, right? (Serious question, because ain't no way...)

Maybe something else is going on with Lappy? Has there been an official announcement from the Phantoms or Flyers? I haven’t seen anything.

 

[Flyerfan4life]

of course they are...

Briere and Jones’ AHL Coach Wish List:

1. Scott Hartnell
2. Nick Schultz
3. Jason Smith
4. Eric Wellwood

Hartnell is bad at a job I thought he'd be good at, so I'm scared how bad he might be as a coach.

 

[Rebels57]

Hartnell is bad at a job I thought he'd be good at, so I'm scared how bad he might be as a coach.

It's honestly incredible how bad he is on TV.

 

[Fight4yourRight]

It's honestly incredible how bad he is on TV.

Chris Pronger on the other hand…

Actually, Pronger would be in my shortlist of candidates for management positions if I were a team. Super smart guy.

 

[GKJ]

Is Jason Smith in the organization?

[Deadpool8812]

Sam Morin

Sign me up. Who ever they pick will suck, I at least like the idea of Morin getting more money from this garbage organization.
