They are a wash but Julien has had playoff success with the Bruins who are built to play a lot like the Blues are right now. Size and depth.

Julien would never come back here after the debacle he endured. If he's let go by B's he be paid in full for a couple years.

Hynes is the type of guy the compensation rule should be intended for. A guy you've invested in who is actively working for you. Compensation for someone you've fired but is still under contract is ******** (e.g. Chiarelli to EDM). The hiring team is doing you a favour unburdening you from the contract.

With Sweeney being picked as GM for Boston I think they stick with Claude who has 3 years remaining, I also don't think he would work for Lou again.

I am hoping that for some reason either Tippet gets fed up with being handed a salary floor roster and wants out , or the Yotes decide to cut ties with him after 3 years of missing the playoffs (even though his roster was nearly as crappy as the Devils).

Okay, so I made the mistake of looking for some Boucher GIFs...
He's carrying on like that over a bad call? No thanks to this guy.

If I had to guess, Bylsma to the Sabres is probably happening barring unforeseen circumstances.
I think we either get Boucher or some random guy out of left field.

Hynes, Bylsma, Boucher. One of those will be our head coach or we will go with Oates like a bunch of dingbats.
I think the small possibility is there that they are waiting for Hitch or someone else to get canned though.

It's not, but I don't think it's really worse than going totally off the rails. You need a balance. But if one of his guys got a cheap shot and got injured I'd understand it more. I don't know the circumstances behind it.

I am confused. If a coach gets fired why the hell are teams getting draft picks for them? Seems like a pretty dumb rule to have for coaches that are literally doing nothing but cashing their paycheck. Seems like it will hurt the chances of getting a new job.

Would you really give up a third for any of the coaches left on the market this offseason though? There's no sure thing worth it imo.

Hi, I'm mat.
It's a rule made more for the Hynes and Blashills, just kind of spills over to everyone else.

Same news from yesterday.
Disco Dan is going to buffalo most likely. They will pay him more then they should because they want a big name after losing out on Babs.
Shero wants Hynes but might settle for Boucher if he doesn't want to give Pitt compensation.

While I don't disagree with your logic, we're no guarantee to even be in a good position roster wise 3 years from now. A 3rd round pick IMO is more valuable to us now than if we were laden with talent just needing the right voice in the room.
I'm cool with Bylsma. I'm cool with Hynes. Under no circumstance do I give the Pens anything for a coach at this time. There's other guys out there that can do the job behind the bench without having to give anything.
I think if its Bylsma, we wont have to compensate, if its Hynes, we will.
