Player Discussion Alain Vigneault Part VI

[Raspewtin]

Congrats guys.

Just to get a little ahead of the game, I am going to go on record now saying our next coach, whoever that is, sucks and needs to be fired.

wow this is just about as well versed as every other post you've made in history

 

[Allan92]

Think it's a little silly for people to be acting as if AV couldn't coach a team if his life depended on it- he definitely has his flaws, as does every coach, and I would welcome a new coach to oversee the rebuild...but let's not kid ourselves; AV would be fired before breakfast and hired before lunch. He has had a lot of success and is a good coach. Just not for this team anymore

 

[True Blue]

He’s a good coach with the right roster who seems to not be capable of tailoring a system to a changing roster. He’s run his course here, but he will quickly find another job and win a lot of games there.

Providing that he goes to a team which features one of the best goalies in the league.

Middletown Sports Complex is looking for a Zamboni Driver
Roller Hockey Coach Position at Camp Lokanda

several spots that would fit him..

 

[TheTakedown]

The 14-15 team was better.

The roster has gone steadily downhill from there.

Disagree. That 13-14 team once they adapted to the system was world's better.

The 14-15 team was basically the 2010 Chicago team with a good goalie.

 

[kovazub94]

Do you how difficult it is to allow 50+ shots in two straight games?

Curious to see if AV makes any adjustments. I can't blame the roster for this type of historic ineptitude.

I think we should be beyond asking this question based on AV tenure here.

Keep him out of Middletown please. (my kid plays hockey there).

A lot of Rangers fans who are not too happy with AV.

I wonder how AV would do as an analyst on RDS, TSN, etc.... MSG.... in-studio...

He'd have to give up his oral fixation first. He's always sucking on a lozenge or chewing the hell out of his gum.

To go after AV is really unfair IMO. He could've brought us the cup a few times already a few years ago when we had a good team with an average goalie. Now we simply have no team. Time to rebuild.

When in his tenure did the Rangers have an average goalie?

Ok, I read the first few words there and wasn't sure where your post was going hahaha

I keep it G rated here.

AV sucks the life out of his goaltenders with his stupid man to man "defense".

Or it's just as possible that they only failed to win BECAUSE of him.

Based on what many here are saying about your assessment of the level of goaltending I have to think you just waded into the deep end with deflated swimmies. You tried to analyze, you gave it a shot, no shame in that, but you just didn't have the training or equipment needed

 

[NYR94]

He can go coach the Seattle team when they start. He's done in NY.

 

[NYRFANMANI]

Sweet mother of troll accounts!

 

[Inferno]

What's the all time record for most goals given up I. The first 5 minutes of a game for a season? Its obscure but I can't imagine were that far off....

"I'm not saying we're gonna tank, but everybody stay in the locker room until the 5 minute mark"

The 14-15 team was basically the 2010 Chicago team with a good goalie.

Did you mean another team? The 2010 Chicago team won the cup and is considered one of the best cup winning teams post-lockout. To compare them unfavorably to the 14-15 team and say that the 14-15 team is worse than the 13-14 team because they're a better version of the 2010 Chicago team is odd unless you made a mistake somewhere.

 

[GregSirico]

This team is just so checked out.

 

[GregSirico]

I can't believe there are still some fans who think he's great with young players or that none of this is his fault. To be fair, not all of it is his fault, but to say he's blameless is mindblowingly stupid.

 

[Kaapo Cabana]

I get that AV is good for the tank, But player evaluation is impossible in his system. Thats about the only thing that matters right now, and we can't do it because errrrbody is terrible.
