Just to add to this you will also be infracted if you create a new MacLean thread. We have better things to do with our time than to merge threads because you couldn't look 3/4's of the way down the page to find the exact same topic.

Just curious, when fans from other boards come to our GDT to troll do they get infracted or are they just deleted?
Also can't wait for the presser.
YES
Michalek and Spezza both -2 tonight again. Yes I would sit them without hesitation? Did real well with them injured last year time to try again. 
It wasn't so clear when I made thee last Maclean thread after the leafs loss, but is everyone now with me that he needs to be gone? Last year was a spirited effort following the injuries from our guys , as I remember before karlsson went down we were maybe a few games above .500

I can't speak for everyone else, but absolutely not.
Players are the issue right now. Can't blame the coaches for trying everything under the sun to get these guys motivated/ going.

This.
If they come to our board and act civil and just want to politely discuss the game? That's usually fine.
Come here to troll? No excuses.
Needs to go. A lot of stupid moves this season:
1-Phillips on the pp
2-Condra playing with Spezza
3-Neil playing with Spezza
4-Giving Michalek prime ice time.
5- Neil on the pp during the last 2 min

Michalek,Phillips,Corvo and Conacher need to go
Edit: the whole bottom six need to go. Maybe keep smith/ Neil o
Pageau was seemingly on every 2nd shift in the 2nd period. He played pretty well. Not great but solid (or was it just me?). Then gets 2 shifts in the 3rd with Kassian. wtf? Mac is just all over the place, up and down, hot and cold (actually not hot at all).
Smith/Neil/Greening is total failure and he keeps going to it. Condra on the 1st line
It's getting embarrassing.

IMO I don't think BM should get to fire another coach.
If PM goes, then so should the rest of the front office (house cleaning).

What if the last one was 2 months old and lord how many pages buried, would we still get infracted then?
Coaches can have off year too, Maclean is having one right now. In the end, it will even out. You can't just fire a Jack Adams award winner, and let the players off the hook so easily. Time to get better players and at least move some dead weight, PM has been saying that for the last two year end meetings.
Look, last year, everything went right for PM. This year, nothing is going right. It is actually a predictable result when you think about it.
I blame Melnyk the most...

Agreed. I want Paul Maclean pulling something like Roy did. Obviously not exactly that same stunt, but something along those lines.
At the same time, I don't think the fault is all his. It's clear that the players share some of the blame. However, Maclean has been making some weird decisions. For example, putting Chris Neil out on the PP at the end because he "scored a goal", more like Macarthur scored a goal off of Chris Neil. No reason to put the guy who was the primary beneficiary of a skilled linemate and some luck tonight in a gamebreaker situation.
If the coach can't make these small inferences, what else is he missing?

Maclean's coaching is way too erratic the way he messes with lines and who dresses or starts. No wonder there is no cohesive play these guys have no defined roles with all the juggling. 3rd 4th line guys play the pp and when he finds a 4 forward pp combo that works if they don't score every time he goes back to what doesn't work with Phillips no less but sticks with that a long time. It wouldn't be too hard to come up with a whole list of his ridiculous decisions there are examples just about every game but this season he's not being saved by the goalies. He has as much to do with the inconsistency of the team as the players.
BM could fire MacLean if it didn't cost Melnyk any extra money. He'd have to agree to coach and share the GM duties with Tim to split the load but they'd have to do it for the same money as long as MacLean's contract lasts. Frankly I wish BM would do it sooner rather than later.
