The Red Wings aren’t very good.

Been saying it all year.

I really wanna watch them go down the toilet for the rest of this year.

You have been wavering on that lately, which confused me.

Was obvious they weren't going to just run away with a playoff spot.

I’ve never bought them as being good this year, but I have definitely wavered on them being a playoff team this year.

I definitely have always maintained that if they are indeed a playoff team, they’re this year’s team unsustainable. At least in the East they are.

They won enough early in the year to stay afloat and then they looked like they were falling apart, but have since picked it up again.

The worst thing that I think can happen for them is if they go back to Husso. He’s been pretty bad and their coach seems to love him. They only stopped using him once they had no choice because he was injured.

This may be the end of Lyon’s run.
 
As much as we all scream about wanting Ruff fired there's no doubt in my mind that if one of the bigger name head coaches out there becomes available, Fitz would seriously consider hiring one and doing away with Ruff. Maybe not if we still make the playoffs though.

And by big name I'm thinking Mike Sullivan. Can he survive yet another playoff miss with a new GM that's not even the one who hired him?

Hell f***ing no to Mike Sullivan. Penguins fans have been trying to rid of him for at least 2 years I think this is the 3rd season now where it seems they all want him gone and he just won't get fired. If some are unhappy with Ruff, I'd imagine they would be twice unhappy with Sullivan. He is their resident stubborn, unfireable coach stuck in a different era (although not too long ago but long enough to cause problems).

Just lurk over at the Pens board for last 2 years and you will see such disdain for Sullivan and his coaching ways.

People bitch about coaches. If you don’t want Sullivan then you want someone who hasn’t had a NHL head coaching job because the other fired guys are less appealing.

Their fans will find out soon enough that it’s the over the hill roster and not the coaching.
