He did not get the most. They got boat raced in the finals."They ran out of gas" Did Vegas run out of gas? I am not going to treat this season like 96 where we glorify 2nd place. Done with 2nd place. I want a fat parade down Los Olas Blvd anything less is failure. We keep giving Barkov excuses "he needs to learn'' Did Eichel need to learn? 23 points in 20 games while Barkov was less than PPG. Don't even hang a banner for the ECF. 2nd place is just first loser. Tired of this feeling.Coaches don't make it to the finals by themselves man. Otherwise, why don't we see the same 2 "best" coaches every season duking it out? Did Sutter forget what to do this year? Did Cooper? No. It's coaches. It's roster. It's locker-room chemistry. It's luck (puck luck and injury luck). There are so many more factors than just who the coach is.
What Maurice showed me THIS season (who gives a shit about the last 25 seasons) is that he can get the most out of what he's given. He's not the reason we lost. But he's a big reason this roster was able to get as far as it did.
