he was but it was long enough that he lost the confidence of the owners. they basically let him make the hall trade and then canned him
Is this a known fact? Because I always wondered if he's lack of attention to our blueline was his fall from grace. Especially when he didn't even properly replace John Moore. We had no muscle or toughness in front of the goalie.

no i’m speculating. he was around for a month after the hall trade. basically holidays he was in but out before any trade deadline moves had to be made

its unfair to say that Shero did not address the blueline

signed Butcher
traded for Vatanen
traded for Mueller
traded for Subban
drafted Ty Smith in the first round

etc

now, it obviously did not work out for him the way that he wanted, but to say it was him basically ignoring the D is just not true

he kept a terrible coach for way too long that cost as at least one arguably two seasons of watchable hockey and slowed the development down a lot. also got us nico and jack though so that’s good at least

that link goes to page 7 and you dont even have a post on that page? I looked at page 6 and 8 also,

oh here I found it

yes you mentioned a Compaq (and Hewlett Packard) in reference to me saying youre getting a Dell
I used Compaq as a reference to Dells size as in compact/small,
I cant help what people find funny!!! A lot of my posts dont get "likes" and I do apologize for stealing some thunder, it's happened to me also !

Don't worry about it. I'm just not funny.

But we can both count on @Nubmer6 to always bring some sanity and common sense back to the thread. :naughty:

Shero didn’t get fired because of the goalie situation.

Shero was let go because he had a traditional job description for his position as a GM and that ran against the way ownership wanted decisions to be made.
