Well hopefully he helps make Hartford a successful organization and develops the kids well/better and they'll be more able to step in and make an impact at the NHL level!
It's also always possible that he lurks around long enough to be a candidate for the NHL job down the road if they decide to move on from Quinn

Only a matter of time before McDavid demands a trade to Hartford now.
Some of that stuff sounds similar to how Quinn is supposed to be. Wants smart, fast, puck moving hockey. Works on communicating individually with players, etc

Leaman would've been a great hire, but it's totally understandable why he'd stay at Providence until an NHL job opens up. I like the Knoblauch hire a lot, and I'm excited to see what he can do to try to help fix Hartford. The biggest thing they need down there is structure because they've been an unbridled mess since the last couple of years of Kenny G. Knoblauch should fit in well too with the new coaching culture centered around communicating with younger players.

It's encouraging the things we're hearing about him. The Rangers have some good vets who should be in Hartford this year but also very importantly there will be some great prospects too. We need both and we need a coaching staff that will develop those younger guys into real NHL players. We need the balance and winning helps develop kids a lot because it makes the game more fun.
Hopefully he goes with more than one assistant though. I'm sick and tired of the one assistant thing. I don't think it works well.

Hey, you can say a lot of shit about me, but one thing people must acknowledge: when I'm wrong, I'm the first one to admit it, and will go out of my way to do so.

Looking forward to you owning up to this sentence.Hey, you can say a lot of **** about me, but one you thing people must admit: when I'm wrong, I'm the first one to admit it, and will go out of my way to do so.
Honestly it wouldn't surprise me...he has certainly had an eye on a NHL coaching job and putting in some AHL years while Quinn either succeeds or fails could put him in a position for a head coaching job in a few years

All I want to see is consistency in schemes from the AHL to NHL level.
Players making the jump shouldn't have to learn a completely new way of playing the game in two weeks. Keep some basic similarities in roles and deployments.
