Relegate the Oilers
They literally said this exact same stuff this time last year. "We want to get younger, we want to get faster, Domi will be on the team, etc."
Then the rookies beat the vets in camp and looked far better than them and Tip/GMDM went against everything they said, keeping every scrub they could.
I hope that Domi and Duclair make the team, I really do. And if they do, they cannot be in and out of the lineup playing 8 minutes a night with crap linemates. I'll believe it when I see it.
Sure why not? It's not like the Coyotes are going to be any good next year either way. Might as well give people as much whining and crying material as possible.

DT fanboys getting seriously rustled as of late. I kind of hope DT and Moss do come back and we finish last again so you can maybe, just maybe realize how wrong you are. But then again, you'd probably come up with new excuses and give DT 5 more years.

Yes because anyone who disagrees with you is a fanboy. You have to be fairly naive to believe Tippet and Moss are the primary reasons this team sucks.

He was being slightly sarcastic (at least I think he was), as was I. Of course the team's problems are more than Moss and Tippett. Playfair and Maloney, for example.
Tippett's poor development strategy is still a huge problem though.
OK. Who would You like to see coach the Coyotes next season? Who is out there to coach the Team?

Jeff Blashill, Paul MacLean, Todd McLellan, Claude Julien (although, I'd really rather not have another defensive minded coach), and even Newell Brown are a few candidates just off the top of my head.

I agree its a matter of time. Miss one playoff in 10 Years in Boston. Your Toast.
Here that's another story.

The Channel 12 interview makes me feel better. I've never heard Tippett talk about needing young players to be successful. Maybe he's learning. He's not dumb. He's not a bad coach. He's stubborn, but maybe he's coming around?

Now watch him do the exact opposite of what he said, just like Maloney in the off season
Maloney is Tippett's gimp *****.

This. He can say whatever he wants, I watched all year and actions speak louder than him opining regurgitation from Maloney.
I want a more offensive scheme that brings out the best in our 'fast' & 'skilled' players (Domi, Duclair, Rieder, Lessio, Perlini, Dvorak, etc...)
You've got better puck movers than defensive dmen on the backend so let's use them for what they're good at, moving the puck. More offense leads to playing defense less, leading to Smith not scowling at everyone and their mother when he thinks they blocked his field of vision.

When Tippet first took over the helm, IIRC, he and Maloney talked about how to build a successful bargain basement team. Tippet said that he would need to play a tight checking, low scoring system to keep games close and hope that the goaltender would make the difference. He based success on having a top 5 goaltender. If the purse strings open a bit I am hoping that Tippet will allow for a more open game.
