i really don’t see how Ruff lasts past tonight. even with injury. just let Green take over for the rest of the year and get interviews going this offseason.

I just don't see this team going any further with Ruff. He was hired to develop the young talent. He did that job. Now it's time to put it all together.
Agreed.

He accomplished the goal to develop and it happened LAST SEASON.

Now it's time for Fitz to find someone (a true Vet coach or a coach that knows what the hell he's doing) to take this team to the next level.
 
Eh, idk. We played like ass with a healthy roster, it's just not their year this year like I've said multiple times. They need to trim the fat a bit from the edges like Toffoli, get a goalie in the summer, coach that trusts Holtz + isn't a dweeb then we're cooking.
Yeah I'm pretty much at the season is lost point too. It sucks, but sometimes shit just goes sideways. Hopefully at the very least missing the playoffs gets Ruff out of here.
 
The players have to know that Lindy’s system is junk right? Then again so many of them haven’t experienced much else at the nhl level, maybe the don’t. Maybe that’s part of the problem.
 
The more I think about it the more I think Tom is just throwing the season, and the more it pisses me off. What a bum of a GM.
That's what I'm thinking, too.

What is his endgame, though?

He has to know that the Devils aren't going to be bad enough to have a chance at Top 5 pick....(although if they keep Ruff and Vitek around, I guess there's a chance?)
 
Fire Ruff

Roll with Green

Try to poach a Sullivan Rod in the offseason

Brindamour is never leaving Carolina for us lmao, Travis Green would be an awful interim. Just have Fitz stand behind the bench for rest of the year, it'll make the veteran defense actually take notice since their legit boss is watching them behind their back on the bench. Cooper/Sullivan would be the dream hires
