It's a bit of everything both of you have mentioned but Warsofsky is a great coach. He will get a NHL job soon enough.
That's going to make me feel old when he does.

Last season, before Covid, there was big debate on here re: who bears the responsibility for such scenarios - the front office, the coach or the player or all of the above. It was pretty heated.I posted this on another site as well, so sorry if you've seen it. I'm just blowing off steam as I have no one around to discuss hockey with here.
Please forgive my incoming rant, but the whole Dzingel didn't fit thing doesn't work for me. We didn't give him a chance and play him where he would be successful. He's a complimentary goal scorer and a skill player. He should have been played in a skill role in a top nine role. Except for short times he was pretty much put with grinders and on the 4th line. At least since playing with Haula. He should have at leave been tried for a decent amount of time with trochek/necas, aho/turbo, or at least staal/? if you think those other combos are too soft or defensively irresponsible.
Same now with Galchenyuk, why not try him in a top 9, skill role? We all know McGinn is going to cool off and doesn't really fit up top long term. Give Galchenyuk a chance to prove himself, help the team, and at least improve his trade value if you don't plan to use him long term. I think this makes us closer to 3 lines deep scoring wise. At least until Staal cools off.
Sorry for the rant, but it's frustrating for two potential goal scorers to not be used in the right role or be given a chance. Now Galchenyuk might get the chance after some injuries or be used in a trade, but if nothing else he could improve his trade value.
I don't give my opinion much, but I've been feeling this way for a while concerning Dzingel.
At the end of the day, Galchenyuk has been passed around by teams good and bad. It might just be on him. I wouldn't have minded if he got a shot. Don't mind that we moved on and get cap space.I posted this on another site as well, so sorry if you've seen it. I'm just blowing off steam as I have no one around to discuss hockey with here.
