A Message from Chuck

It'd be nice to hear some player just punching him in the mouth one of these days, dude really deserves it

I hope Giroux says “next question” when Sam asks him a question

I fail to see a situation where Fletcher fires Vigneault early on, unless they bottom out - and there is too much talent on the club to realistically do that.

The man is likely to be here for a while, even if they are just flirting with a playoff spot.

Its an issue that goes back to Scott, and for the standards set for this club. I'd like to know, what they see as a measure of success for this coaching staff next season. The player excuses are out.

Yep, I think anyone predicting he’s gone this season are in the denial stage of grief.

The roster is too good to be bad enough unless the goaltending is as bad as last year, which is almost impossible. Any improvement will be credited to him too, so he’ll be snug as an alcoholic bug.

I think the expectation is not just get to the playoffs but win a series. Unfortunately I think that's enough to keep his job safe.

I think they have to win two. Make the ECF. I'd fire him already, but lets just say for any other coach if they were in his place.

Fletcher is likely to to make further deals at the deadline, to help try to push this thing forward.

Thats my measure of success this year, and what I expect coming out of that retool. AV should be made were aware that those are the goals or he is out. Friendly transparency.

Assuming kids continue to take steps forward and we get a decent back up G it's do able. Hart has to go back to hart. I'd like to see our next coach not be a member of the old boys club. You can only re tread so many times. Need a younger coach with fresh ideas and not old enough to be their grandfather
