Rumors Proposals Thread Post Deadline Apocalypse 3rd Times A Charm Stu Stu Stupider Management May the Schwartz be with You

Oh come on.

Winning experience matters a lot more in the locker room with a coach, not so much a GM. I find it silly the org prioritizes that in a GM, but don't pretend it doesn't matter when it comes to the guy behind the bench in a tight game, or adjusting to a look that the team struggles with. It's the same reason McDrai liked Perry and Keith around.

The panthers that won, and that played under Q were different teams. No Tkachuk, Forsling hadn't broken out, only had Bennett for like 17 games. Maurice is a great coach, I'd love him on this team. Unfortunately, he isnt available, so I'd like the other guy that won 3 cups.
Let’s go get Darryl Sutter then. He’s won Cups and has a series win within the last decade. Who gets swept by the Preds?

I don't think Sutter would come here tbh. I also think Q's teams were more similar to ours than Sutter's championship teams. We don't have anything close to a Quick. I'd be open to him, but I definitely lean coach Q. I also think Q would come in as an Assistant to Knob and that could be the shot in the arm the team needs to shape up. No way Sutter, who doesn't have that baggage, would take an Assistant role.

Also, that Nashville team went to the finals. They weren't trash.

Seeing as your fine with Sutter but not Q, it seems this is personal for you over the whole Kyle Beech thing. We already have Bowman though, and have taken on basically every villain in the NHL the past couple years. I don't think everyone in that org should be ostracized for life, so if the league, Jackson/Bowman, all feel he has done enough to make up for his past, I'm all for bringing him in if it leads to more wins and a cup.
