Speculation: Rangers Head Coach Search (Laviolette being finalized? According to Vince and Friedman)

[I Eat Crow]

Think I already saw a Fire Lavi username already and he’s not even confirmed yet.

You guys are unhinged lol.

I don't like the prospect of it but I ain't going to let it ruin my weekend.

Ed already has a “Fire Laviolette” tag with avatar. Just am curious when the citizen arrest will happen, lol.

If Peter was as jacked as rod brindamor I bet this poll would be the opposite result.

Lavi does look like a hot mess... he's on that Laffy diet. Doesn't hold up when you're about to turn 60. The combover aint it either... That's like a global debuff on the team.

So.... It's Lavi, Quenneville or Roy.

Who would Drury pick of the 3?

 

[hackeyman]

He is better than Gallant. I just feel this roster does not match with Laviolette’s style of hockey.

Well it sure as hell didn't match with Gallant's style of hockey.

Too soft and permitter hockey does not work especially in the playoffs

 

[hackeyman]

Like I said the some of the finesse roster and Laviolette might clash. Would Panarin last a full season with Laviolette who demands backcheck forchecking etc not dangling anywhere on the ice

You obviously don't understand the reality of the situation. The question is will Laviolette last a full season with Panarin.

If it's out of those 3 I'd try Roy.

He wasn't always like this. He was very well put together during his Isles days.

Some of you guys live in an alternate reality. Gerard Gallant's style of hockey too soft ????? Were Florida or Vegas too soft or played perimiter hockey ? He inherited a team softer than f***ing Charmin Ultra Soft and missed 4 years of playoffs precisely because they were so f***ING SOFT and he took them to the Eastern Conference Finals in his first year.

Igor took us there*

Well Igor and a better coach and the kids(including D ) with 2 more years experience should guarantee us a Stanley Cup.

Awesome pics. Great size. Look thick. Solid. Tight. Keep us all posted on your continued progress with any new progress pics or vid clips. Show us what you got man. Wanna see how freakin' huge, solid, thick and tight you can get. Thanks for the motivation.

I will bite. Why is John Hynes a bad choice?

Laviolette with way less success.

Hynes?

Hire Laviolette today.

Bald. The glare from his head will hurt my eyes during the broadcast.

Don’t worry. They’ll put some ads there.

 

[DaBadGuy7]

As long as this means Drury will be gone within a few seasons I guess it's okay...........

Will mean nothing, as long as Dolan has the ear of Sather, the next GM/POHO will be someone he approves of. Organization will never have a true reset or philosophy change until Dolan sells imo.

 

[chosen]

Laviolette will be a hall of fame coach when his career is done regardless of what happens with the Rangers. People here dont even want to hear or acknowledge that the guy might know what the hell he's doing. We've played against his teams for years and they have always played the way we are begging for the Rangers to play. There wasnt even a clear better candidate out there. I'm sure we'd have given the Leafs Powerplay coordinator a long leash lmao

I'm equally as sure that whomever is hired will have a short leash with the folks here, because fans are known for being very patient.

don't panic and shit yourself if this happens, the onus has and will continue to be on the core players of this team, not the coach. We all know that Gallant was not the sole reason we lost this year, we don't need some coach that is a complete 180 in style compared to GG. That's asking for a potential disaster if it doesn't work out and we're not in a position for boom or bust moves anymore. We're (unfortunately) a win now team and we're going to be making decisions based around that. This further proves it. We probably would've kept Gallant had we not buckled at the knees back in December. Gallant was rather vanilla but he wasn't total dogshit.
We just need someone that is a bit more direct and can wake some of these players up.

I trust in Lavi, for now
