You're right. Probably they will look for another type of head coach.
Guys like Torts or Roy does not fit well here.

Btw, right now both Gallant and Laviolette are available: so, in case, it's easier to hire one of these 2 than contact Torts...

Don't forget Bruce Boudreau. Brayden Point would be other-worldly under him

I dont think so. Show me their Kucherov, Point and Vasilevski.

Show me when Kuch and Point have put this team on their back in the playoffs. And Vasy hasn't been great lately.

Columbus' top 3 lines are solid. And they have a solid goalie tandem if Merzlikins gets healthy. Oh yea, and a better coach.

I didnt say effort, I said roster talent. You take ours 100/100 times.

Kuch probably not since the Rangers series? Maybe I'm forgetting another strong series from him since. Point carried us against the Bruins.

I think they sit Hedman for this one, and he comes back Game 2 or 3 at the latest.

Redemption time. It's in series like this that the heart and soul guys like Maroon will help us IMO.

Steam f***ing roll them from the first minute, till the 60th. No playing aroud this time, all the anger accumulated in this whole year should come out and be devastating.

Can’t wait to see Point at 100% penetrating their trap.
This is something I've thought of. I'd like to see him attack the net even at risk of giving up possession. I think it's a better strategy than operating arou d the perimeter all day. Torts welcomes that.

Gabby doesn't have a great playoff record, other than making it to a conference final one time, which is what the whole thing is about.
Oh trust me I know. You ever see his game 7 numbers? Holy crap. But I would be maybe the slightest bit hopeful that would end here? Either way I'd want Gallant or Lavi first

The SUN broadcast will be Rick & Brian, but the national NBCSN crew will be Gord Miller, Milbury, and Brian Boucher. Enjoy.

(Gord Miller is good, FWIW)

I cannot believe I'm going to say this but ... trying here ... fingers are not cooperating ...:huh:

oof... I'd rather have Cooper behind the bench any day than Boudreau
