Confirmed with Link: Rangers Hire Peter Laviolette as Head Coach, Assistants Michael Peca & Dan Muse

[tlk]

Gonna sleep, for a month.

 

[Brother Mouzone]

Hope he succeeds, but this is MEH AF ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,might as well kept Turk if this was the move .IDK 2 or 3 years max before the team is looking for another HC .

 

[duhmetreE]

Obviously, if he can fix our 5v5 issues, we win.

 

[I Eat Crow]

The waiting is over!

 

[duhmetreE]

So, it's most likely McCarthy.... who's the offensive assistant?

 

[EpicDing]

More interested in the ACs tbh

 

[bobbop]

Sigh.

I want a cigarette. (I don’t smoke)

That’s what the holdout was for but he was able to secure @bernmeister @Kocur26 & yours truly

 

[Kodiak]

At least it’s done. The search dragging on was becoming insufferable. I don’t have strong adverse feelings about Laviollette despite him coaching rival teams for years. Will this work out for us?

Correct headline should be: "Dumb People Hire Guy to Fix Problems He Couldn't Fix at Last Job."

 

[Bob Richards]

It was fun though for all of us (including myself) to be agonizing over the menu for weeks just to order a glass of water.

 

[Cmox]

Its been a weeks long emotional rollercoaster so much that I don’t care anymore.

 

[SingnBluesOnBroadway]

Uninspired.

 

[duhmetreE]

Best option out there. Who would you want Messier or someone who might be another David Quinn.

The roster might change because of Laviolette. He has never had a soft passive team before. If this runs Panarin out of town, I am all for that alone

I feel people have a false view of Panarin.

He works well under hard asses. He worked great under Torts. Had a MVP type season under Quinn. Got really lazy under Gallant who is about as hands off as you can get.

Hopefully he gets pushed again.

 

[HockeyBasedNYC]

This move is meh.

The whole waiting around for the meh coach was meh.

It could work out, or not. Meh.

 

[Loff]

Yawn. But whatever.

LGR.

 

[duhmetreE]

Fat, Lazy and Balding.

we have our identity.

 

[Killem Dafoe]

Might as well.

As long as we tweak the roster a bit and everyone comes ready to play we'll be fine.

You think Quinn was a hardass on Panarin?

 

[tlk]

Feels like Hynes rumour was played as a negative smokescreen.

 

[haohmaru]

Not thrilled but Gallant had to go and the coaching pool was pretty shallow to choose from. Hoping for some young-ish assistants for more progressive thinking.

Did you at least get ice with it?

I didn't.

 

[bhamill]

Eh, could fail miserably, could work out. Uninspiring but will give it a shot.

Yup. Pretty much.
