Roster Building XXIV: Our Hearts Go Pitter Pattersson

[Blueline Bomber]

Once again, does anyone actually know what Jeff Daniels coaches as part of this coaching staff? Like, we know Gleason handles the defensemen and the PK. Schonfelder has the goalies. Rod appears to handle the PP and late game man-advantage. So what does Daniels do?

Even Google doesn’t seem to know. It just lists him as an assistant coach and then goes into the many roles he’s played previously in the organization.

Does he even exist or did the organization just invent him to be the scapegoat?

 

[Anton Dubinchuk]

He is a Cup-winning assistant coach. He’s continuously been with the organization for longer than almost anyone.

So defining what he does on the coaching staff should be easy then, no?

 

[WreckingCrew]

Boogeyman for the fanbase.

PTSD for Checkers fans, he had a knack for making the team underperform it's talent level. There were a couple years talent overcame that and they performed well, but my god that team was brutal to watch when he was coach

So you're saying he's our consigliere and knows where all the bodies are buried.

More or less.

I’m mostly just saying it’s kind of wild. He may be the most forgettable guy involved in the Cup run. With how often we’ve called him up and down to be the AHL coach and whatnot it’s easy to think he came to the big club later after his Charlotte stint and forget he was in this exact role in 06.

 

[Svechhammer]

I have no idea how legit this person is

In the comments, he goes on to float Svech's name as a trade piece.

I have no idea how legit this person is

the MR going to get traded was started by someone in Toronto.

FWIW: we need to shake up the D and get some puck movers or size beyond the future Nikishin.

 

[spockBokk]

I have no idea on that account, and would be doubtful on anything it posts until proven otherwise. However, if they want to make another major trade, Svechnikov is really the only piece they have to potentially move.

They’re not going to move Aho, Jarvis or Slavin. I’m sure they’d move Kotkaniemi if they could find a taker and it made sense…who else is there for a “roster” shakeup?

 

[robbieberns]

KK, 1st, Artamanov, Blake as a package if we’re thinking non Svech trade? ‘Morrow in stead of one of those non KK pieces depending on the other team’s ask?

[Blueline Bomber]

He started off this season with so many goals for the Pens. That's nuts.
