His job is supposedly to help mentor the younger guys. Give them a bit more attention of what they're doing right and wrong so Q and the rest of the coaching staff don't have to devote more time into them.
question, why ??
at this junction, a short tenure of Darryl can do wonders, can't hurt anywhere near Q and the job he is doing.For the same reasons Q needs to go, IMO. And why Darryl Sutter is also a strong NO in my book. The game has passed them by.
Brent Sutter hasn't been involved in an NHL team since like 2012, I believe. He is the GM and coach of a junior team that he owns. No thanks.
Q getting fired mid season is likely a pipe dream. They just gave out his mustaches last month ffs
i would love to have Iron Mike back, just for finishing this season only. it can teach these new age hockey players what old school hockey is all about.Keenan is back on the market.
no matter what you or any has to say, i believe this is the consensus here.We've had a great run, that we all can be very proud of, but it's time to stop kidding ourselves. 3 cups since 2010, and what should have been a 4th in 2014 (sigh). It's time to move on from competing and see what we currently have. Q's time is done. I haven't agreed with all of what he's done and he has been great for us, but it's time. Promote him upstairs or let him go to a team that's on the bubble. Find a coach that can work with this kids and develop them/see who's worth keeping. This is a great draft and with some luck we can get an impact player. Dump the UFA's for picks, call up Hinostroza, Pokka and Highmore. PLAY KEMPNY!!! Give Debrincat more minutes. Let the kids make mistakes and learn from them. If Kempny makes a mistake he's benched the whole game. Keith and Seabrook get more minutes. We need a coach who will hold the vets accountable yet not crush the young guys. I don't want to see us become the next Detroit. Thoughts?

the org will not do it.
Blues fan coming in peace. You guys have done something that every other team in the league would love to do. What do you think SB will do now?I don't think they can do it. Who is going to take on our overpaid veterans and give anything to build on moving forward? Firing Q won't suddenly transform Seabrook into a serviceable defenseman.

he will need to do is crap or get off the crapper.Blues fan coming in peace. You guys have done something that every other team in the league would love to do. What do you think SB will do now?
let the kids play and get that high draft pick.Seabrook +8 ...Keith -11 ...so who is the "serviceable drfenseman"?

for me, it is a quick eye test to start with. stats/numbers do not lie.If you are relying solely upon +/- to judge a player's worth, I don't know what to tell you.

problem is, Iron Mike does like his pugilistic kind of enforcer/player.
scorch earth.... actually i love this phrase.I didn't mean scorched earth rebuild, but we have guys in Rockford that a lot of us have wanted to get ice time on the big club without going into Q's doghouse right away. If Q is gone and our expectations aren't "cup or bust" we can see how good these guys are. I would never advocate trading Kane, Keith, Crow, hell even Toews. It's just time to be smart about where the team is at and how do we get back to the 2010-2015 era as quickly and efficiently as possible. If it takes 2-3 years than so be it.
