Speculation: Who's the next coach?

[SirloinUB]

On paper I like the idea of Quenneville, in reality I want nothing to do with that guy.

Unless he's desperate for anyone to hire him, I doubt Quenneville would want to coach this team currently. Yes, it's an original six team and Yzerman is a big name, but there's too many holes and question marks.

Quinnville is on record saying he would love to join a rebuilding team and would welcome the challenge. He basically is posturing to come to Detroit.

@Bench . Because he'll find a way to fix the defense...

...even if it means multiple goalies on the ice.

6 goalie lineup! An all new low-scoring era of the NHL.

Really?

Has he seen our defense and goaltending?

What's Bob Hartley up to these days?

Jessica Campbell is one of Seattle's coaches.

What's Bob Hartley up to these days?

Probably playing with Hasek's autographed stick.

He's overrated

What's Bob Hartley up to these days?

He was successful in a chill coach, don't know why did he go to KHL

 

[lilidk]

Watson worked with Kasper, Edvinsson, AJo, working with Danielson, Lombardi, Buium, Wallinder and others. Next season MBN should be there also. He is good choice in couple of years to be Detroit next coach

 

[RabidBadger]

At the complete opposite end of the spectrum, is it too early for David Carle?

You beat me to the punch. That would have to wait til next year. He's going for back to back WJC Gold and NCAA titles this year.

 

[PelagicJoe]

It needs to be someone who has a definitive system other than "Just pass it east and west a bunch of times until the pass gets tipped out of the offensive zone by a defender." We don't shoot enough or very well. Our power play is total ass cheeks with, you guessed it, a bunch of bad passing left and right. We can't attack, defend, or hit for beans. Get somebody.

 

[Michael Brand Eggs]

Hopefully someone that plays more of an uptempo game.

 

[RED WINGS STOMP]

Mike Sullivan? I mean, the Pens have to fire him at some point, right?

What's Bob Hartley up to these days?

Nah, go for gold. Marc Crawford

 

[FMichael]

I know who I want because he's best available and says he's eager to back to coaching, but I doubt Yzerman wants the stigma around the brand.

Joel Quenneville.

Agreed.

With this being Lalonde’s last season under contract we’ll likely have a new coach hire sometime in June or July 2025.

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

Nah, go for gold. Marc Crawford

I mean, at that point why not go full Keenan?

 

[FMichael]

Nah, go for gold. Marc Crawford

Was gonna post the same...Requirements: must have awesome head of hair!
