Weren’t the Predators injury prone lately? And why did they keep Marc Ciacco around? Who is he married to Drury’s sister or cousin? Only 2 hires I am concerned about.
I can't really find anything for the latter years of his stay in Nashville but from 2009-2016 (all of which were under his watch), Nashville was towards the bottom in man games lost in the league
Rangers and Chicago were 1 and 2 already though.
I wouldn't really say that this was necessarily a "good" thing though. The Rangers have been notorious for rushing guys back too quickly or playing players who should probably be resting. They really bungled the Shattenkirk situation (they tried to rush him back from his knee injury and it flared up on him, he hasn't been the same since. It was dumb to let him play on it to begin with) and are lucky that it hasn't bitten them in the ass more often - They rushed Staal back from PCS, Kreider back from TOS surgery and Lindgren last year (where he played 1+ periods before getting hurt again) just to name a few.
They've dodged the "catastrophic" injury bug for a while now and those things aren't really driven by off ice preparation or treatment, it's partially luck and it's partially up to players not putting themselves in a position to get smashed.
Unless Ciacco is going to Hartford, he's basically on the payroll to just be on the payroll.
