Beat me to it.Zach Aston Reese on the 4th line.
Sully gets to pick 20 guys who play the right way.

Nobody does it better!I have it on good authority that not only will Carmel Indiana's own Zach Trotman will be coming out of recent retirement to play for Sully on Team USA. But that Juusori Riikola will be guaranteed to be picked for team Finland, only to be put in the press box all tourny.
This will go over well on this board.
didn’t Bylsma get fired like 4 months or so after he named to the same lol? …. We can hope for the same result…

Are you mad? I want to see the idiocy of Sullivan's usage at full display for this stupid management and ownership to see how f***ing awful he really is when the pressure is on and there's no Ricky T to help him from himself.I just wanna see Sullivan coach Phil again.

Watch him put Jake Guentzel as the first line LW and try to put Boeser on the 4th line and bench DeBrincat for the whole tournament.
Sullivan is a great coach and team USA is lucky to have him.

I definitely think Mike should. It'll be fun. For some.Who do you think should coach team USA?
I wasn’t aware it was 2017, Marty McFly.
Brian Burke has been heavily involved in USA Hockey. I don't think there's much more of a perspective he and Hextall can get.I definitely think Mike should. It'll be fun. For some.
There's a very small group of American coaches.
Sullivan.
Hynes
Eakins
Laviolette
Blashill
Granato
Quenneville is dual.
It's a sad sack list right there mate. I don't care that he coaches. I care that the ownership sees him coach and make the same mistakes and maybe finally get a perspective on why they need to move on.
Yeah outside of awful usage of young players, stubbornness of the first line staying together in the playoffs 3yrs in a row with awful results. Beefing with players. Causing the whole Kessel issue.Brian Burke has been heavily involved in USA Hockey. I don't think there's much more of a perspective he and Hextall can get.
People may need to accept that Sullivan is a good coach with his foibles and quirks, just like every good coach. He hasn't lost the team. And there are plenty of other issues to address in terms of personnel. Until the Penguins improve their personnel and still fall flat, or he loses the room, Sullivan will be the Penguins' coach.
No, Geno produces in the playoffs when healthy. I’m not sure I’d put Jake on an Olympic roster though.Ah yes the what have you done lately for me crowd.
Do you dislike Sid and Geno now too?

Not really adapting and evolving the Pens system once his assistant Tocchet left. He likely is a good coach but he's good when Tocchet is his right hand man. A collaboration.
It would even be more cool if we just fired sully since it’s clear he can’t coach anymore, at least not this team.I bitch about bringing back Tocc being an old boys club move. But it'd be a cool test to figure out if Sully was actually better or not with Tocchet at his side. Or were our personnel during the back to backs just that good

If he needs an assistant coach to be effective, he’s not a good coach.
