Confirmed with Link: Ducks officially name Randy Carlyle head coach

[The Mighty Duck Man]

dirk will get what he wants, stoner and bieksa will probably both play over 20 minutes a game

Right, just as he leaned on Sean O'Donnell for major minutes in his time here.

 

[TheStuntman]

This is lol tastic.

 

[Dirk316]

I would probably put him 4th behind

Babcock
Boudreau
Wilson

stop

 

[Dirk316]

Rumor is Carlyle was also offered the Flames job and luckily he chose the team with the most chance to win with

 

[kducks]

I hated you Whitney but damn I freaking love this tweet.

 

[OCSportsfan]

I hated you Whitney but damn I freaking love this tweet.

Funny. Right now Getz and Perry are saying Duck me, we should have watched Kesler and Cogs and mirrored their mentality.

 

[Dirk316]

Worthless players like Whitney and Aaron ward hate Carlyle another positive

 

[HanSolo]

Disgusting.

This is all gonna end in a ****ing rebuild.

 

[kducks]

Worthless players like Whitney and Aaron ward hate Carlyle another positive

Yeah, they were clearly alone in this opinion.

 

[Dr Johnny Fever]

Worthless players like Whitney and Aaron ward hate Carlyle another positive

Explain how that makes the Ducks a better team.

 

[The Duck Knight]

Explain how that makes the Ducks a better team.

Doesn't matter. We're going to punch our way to the Cup.

 

[KaseMeOutside]

Signing McGratton to a 3 year 1 way deal, NMC will make the ducks better

Hey if we have to have a useless enforcer to play 3 minutes per game may as well get the undisputed best.

 

[Dr Johnny Fever]

Disgusting.

This is all gonna end in a ****ing rebuild.

No, a rebuild would imply a recognition of the vat of **** we have voluntarily dived into. We will waste a few years making desperate trades first. Once we've given away all our best players and we're still paying our worthless ****ing captain and his sidekick, the rumors will start about relocating the franchise due to fan apathy.

 

[Dirk316]

Here comes the hyperbole

 

[Dirk316]

All you Carlyle haters what would you consider a successful year from Carlyle this upcoming season? Is it Stanley Cup or bust?

 

[The Duck Knight]

All you Carlyle haters what would you consider a successful year from Carlyle this upcoming season? Is it Stanley Cup or bust?

100% yes. We just fired one of the most winning coaches in history solely because he couldn't deliver a Cup.

 

[Lord Flashheart]

Looking forward to actually having a chance in the playoffs

Vegas odds, and I know you like those, actually gives the team less chance winning the Cup this coming season compared to previous seasons.

 

[Unholy]

Ignore feature is useless with all this quoting

 

[Dr Johnny Fever]

All you Carlyle haters what would you consider a successful year from Carlyle this upcoming season? Is it Stanley Cup or bust?

I'll be surprised if this team makes the playoffs. But you'll find plenty of reasons to blame everybody except RC.

 

[nilssont]

Wow as if the last few years werent horrible enough.

 

[KaseMeOutside]

All you Carlyle haters what would you consider a successful year from Carlyle this upcoming season? Is it Stanley Cup or bust?

Yep, same standard BB has been getting held to here, it's only fair.

 

[Finnished]

Lmao when will some team give a chance to European top coaches and not some has been coaches who will not take a team anywhere. Yeo was so bad with the Wild that its not even funny and now he is with St Louis. Carlyle was god awful in Toronto and Ducks for his last years and now he is back. I bet NHL teams would bring back 80-90 year old ex coaches rather than European ones. I can just laugh at this lol.

 

[KaseMeOutside]

the nhl is an old boys club there is resistance to younger coaches with new ideas so these guys stick with what comforts them, murray showed just how stuck in the past he is and we'll be rebuilding AGAIN soon

 

[salsa man]

I would probably put him 4th behind

Babcock
Boudreau
Wilson

Now that's ridiculous. Babcock and Boudreau, sure, I actually agree, but Ron Wilson? Nope, you're being too harsh on Carlyle. He still won the ****ing cup for ****'s sakes, and I'm as pissed as anyone about bringing him back, so it's not like I'm being a Carlyle homer like Dirk.
