Friedman 30 thoughts - some tidbits on Detroit

[njx9]

Enh. I think the team underperformed pretty much across the board this year, I just don't think we can blame Blashill for that.

Then I'm completely unclear on what you think a coach is responsible for, though it doesn't appear to have anything to do with what a coach is actually responsible for.

 

[Frk It]

I think the 'quality' of the roster is decent, but the performance of the roster was bad.

What exactly do you think the function of a coach is?

Everyone preformed poorly therefore nobody is accountable. It's a beautiful ouroboros of logic.

Or, alternatively, you don't know what a coach is responsible for.

Something besides magically making players have good seasons.

misrepresentation.

You only feel that way because you don't understand my goal isn't representing you accurately. If you were clever enough to ween my true intentions you'd see representation is pointless and the real directive is generation of revenue via Bench Bucks.

Cool, three posts in a row where you decide not to actually clarify your position when challenged on it.

That's a bold strategy to continuing honest discussion, there, HiHD.

Holland is CLEARLY hoping to secure his future with either Svechnikov or Dahlin.

getting the most out of his players IS a coaches sole responsibility

It's Holland's fault for putting together this team. It's Blashill's fault for failing to adjust his (Babcock's) system to the changing conditions of the roster. It's the training staff's fault for not preventing more injuries. It's the players' fault for underperforming. There's enough blame to go around. Those playing their assess off all season long are the only ones beyond reproach.

So Zetterberg.... Yup that is pretty much it.

And a few grinders. That is pretty much it, basically.

The function of the coach includes keeping track of Sheahan's goals scored. O
