Who replaces Tortorella as Team USA coach for the next World Cup and Olympics?

[Machinehead]

Mr. Whiskers, my cat.

I'm into it.

I'd think it'll have to be Sullivan.

As much as I love watching team NA, USA will be better off when they can play Eichel, Matthews and Gaudreau. Those guys, plus obvious picks like Faulk and Kessel and a coach who knows how to use skill would go a very, very long way

 

[Joe Sakic]

I hope it's Lavi.

 

[Six Assets]

lol imagine how Dubinsky's feeling. He has to go back and play 82 games for that madman Torts.

 

[CutOnDime97]

I think I'd stay with Tortorella.

Same, I mean the guy did give us his stance on the national anthem controversy. What more can you ask for? Sure they didn't get the results they wanted, but what can you do.

 

[matsqq]

Mr. Whiskers!

 

[Beansy*]

I'd go with Torts again. Let him redeem himself.

You're assuming Torts lasts a full season.

Replacing Torts... with someone better I presume... now that is a tough one

 

[Based Anime Fan]

Have a staff of Sullivan - Lavi - Hynes

Sulluvan won a Cup
Lavi did decently well with a subpar Flyers team and is doing good with Nashville
Hynes did decently well with a subpar Devils team and was successful with WBS

I can picture this group now: "We need someone who can bring USA Hockey back to the top. What is Herb Brooks doing?" - Brian Burke "He's dead" - Lombardi. BB: "Well, call Ron Wilson. He'll make sure we get to our heavy game!" DL: "He hasn't really coached at this level in a while...." BB: "We're not looking for the best coach, we're looking for the right coach! He'll bring the grit!"

Count on Ron Wilson being the next coach cause Burke is a fool and will want to "recreate" 1996 completely

 

[aufheben]

I'm into it.

Mr. Whiskers is not a pro. Torts is so therefore he is infallible so I do not see the need to replace him.

 

[Canadienna]

They should pick Laviolette

 

[Battle Lin]

they better change whoever picks whos on the team as well

 

[Beerz]

I can think of better coaches I'd rather have than Torts but I didn't have too much of an issue with how he coached this team.

The fault lies with the GM who constructed the team. It just wasn't very good.

The players sucked too

 

[VoidCreature]

Mike Sullivan. No question.

Didn't Lavi also win a Cup with Carolina?

 

[incineratorz]

sullivan and laviolette

 

[Scotty B]

Why wait USAH? fire him NOW, before T USA's last game!

 

[WayneSid9987]

Yea Sully and Lavi are good starts. Let them choose their 3rd(or 4th guy).
Throw all the meatheads out on the managing side.
Bring Shero back into the fold.

I'm afraid the Torts stench might hurt Sully's chances but it shouldn't cuz they'll never coach together again. Ever.

 

[Alwalys]

I'd prefer a can of tuna over this schmuck.

Mr. Whiskers, my cat.

seriously. a ****ing mashed potato would have done better; the players probably could have assembled a better system and plan.

Where's Reggie Dunlop when u need him?

 

[Pez68]

How did this idiot get the call to begin with?

10 years ago. Forgot about that.

 

[Deutschland Dangler]

Why does it necessarily have to be an American coach?
