i would be happy if we took a different route, Greg Brown, David Carle Or Steve Ott

Ok sure. But Mike Babcock has a cup too.

Who’s next ?

Meet the new boss, same as the old boss?

That's a joke/reference. Anyone?

Hopefully we won't be fooled again.

Bruce Boudreau is getting up there in age, but I think that he would be a good candidate. He helped a young Caps team learn how to win and could do the same for us.

I think we are going to see McClellan .. he is known as a good developer of younger talent , and a strong defensive system..Like the GM criteria , they were seeking experience … sure would be a great staff with Vogelhuber and Nelson

I thought McLellan was absolutely horrible as Oilers HC, no idea how he's done since then. But most coaches / GMs / etc. have had a bad stint somewhere, so it's not necessarily a deal breaker, just means my initial impression of him is really bad.

Take a shot everytime you see the word “thorough” regarding a CBJ search

"Jackets will do a thorough search but I will throw out some names of guys who have had jobs before so you have heard of them but do not currently have jobs to make it sound like there is more to say and know at this point other than Jackets will do a thorough search and if I need do to the 1/2 and 2/2 thing on X, I will do that because that is how media works now, where news and commentary and reporting and speculation now completely co-exist side-by-side."

2/2
"And if one of those random guys gets the job I can say how smart I am and if not I can say thorough search."

 

[GoJackets1]

It will be interesting to me to see if Nelson and Hartley emerge as candidates, with their prior ties to Waddell. Nelson seems more than ready for another shot, and Evason from the others listed seems a tier above.

Weren't there rumors of Kings players locking him out of a room as well? Also he might be one of those coaches who could have success the 1st 2 years or but by year 3, the players hate him.

You should launch a podcast! I'd like to hear more what you're hearing.

If you mean what I’m making up then yeah!

 

[Cyclones Rock]

My guess is that the new coach will be a "safe" choice. Namely a known quantity who lacks controversy.

Likely someone who was fired last season from their NHL HC job.

In slight defense of him, he take over right at the tail end the great era and Holland deffo held on to things to long and ending up not being in a great position to rebuild at the start. Now I still wouldn't hire him, I think he could have done a lot with what he had, especially toward the end of his tenure, but he was working uphill for a lot of it. Reminds me of Gerard Gallant during his time here.

Hey listening to what your mind has to say isn't the same as actively making shit up. You're just hearing things!

Unless there's something I don't know about his past, I like Evason the best out of LeBrun's options. This article on him after Wild job ended was a great read.

Dean Evason sitdown: How Wild firing went down, why he's ready to move on — 'what do I need time off for?'

Evason: "I'm a f---ing good coach. I can coach. I'm ready to coach. I hope I get another situation to coach and I hope it’s in this league."

McClellan on a team with a civil war motif would be very tasty indeed!

FYI I keep seeing the thread title as (2nd Annual Head Scratch Thread)

Well.... Waddell has preached that he was the team to play fast. We've heard that mentioned before and typically involves high IQ players and not just "fast" players. HOwever, I get the feeling he also means he wants more actual speed in this lineup. That being said, this is not typically the style of a retread. They can tend to be more defensive minded and conservative. This club has struggled with a defensive system for multiple years now. maybe it's time to go back to someone that preaches and teaches Safe is Death. If that's the case, I don't see guys like Provorov being long for the CBJ world. He seems more the epitome of safe....

I want someone that truly unlocks the youth potential, but by God... give them more than one year to get things going and implemented. Crazy we held the GM for a decade but seem to roll through coaches like a hot knife through butter or water through a mexican tourist....
