You are absolutely correct. We have a coach that has not won a single playoff series as a OHL head coach. A great coach adapts to his roster and rides their strengths. Not making a team conform to a game plan that has not produced success to date. A winning coach can get players to buy into the program but when your history is met with failure, well you become the joke in the room. St Louis went from worst to first with a coaching change only. That's how important a versatile coach can make all the difference. Nothing personal with TL just WR has been taking the cuts in the face for the disappointment of sucess. The slew of talent that's left the program is all on TL. WR wouldn't have brought them in if he didn't believe in their potential. Not every player works out as hoped, but 3 Mem cups and a pile of NHL players developed in the Spits the past 10 yrs takes the onus off of WR . like it or not. He gets a hall pass based on prior achievements. TL has a long way to go to earn one.

Wish it was that easy! Meanwhile we have July 1st approaching...not soon enough.
The #Canes and Mike Vellucci have mutually agreed to part ways.
Lots of jobs still out there for those looking for work...

Not gonna happen! Savage is in money save mode. He’s not paying the staff out.
Well than we suffer for 2 more year's i guess. Not a wise decision.

Nathan is a good person and he should land on his feet. I wish him nothing but the best in the future.
The new management team will put it's spin on The Spits. Hopefully, the belt tightening will not chase away players!

Stevens deal
Nice to get a pick for someone who isn't part of the future but if he reports to Niagara the question has to be asked was he just not part of Windsor's plans or would he simply not report and why as well as if they got full value.
Either way a pick in the cupboard.

.......Nathan is a really good guy, anyone that can't see that is blind.
It's ok to have a different opinion or idea of what a good guy is right??

Sure, but unless the guy insulted your mother or something why disparage good words towards him on a MB after he lost his job?
