But all of that said, he was mostly cooked when he got here. His comments seem to indicate that he was mismanaged by the coach. What was the coach supposed to do with a guy who was no more than a 3rd line player for most of his time here?
He was a bad signing, either because the GM didn't realize he couldn't keep up anymore, or the GM didn't realize his coach didn't want his top 9 forwards playing dump and chase hockey? But of all the things we can lay at Bruce's feet, how is this criticism relevant?
Is Karson Kuhlman gonna give an interview in 10 years about how Cassidy wasted all of his offensive talent by sticking him on the 4th line?
he signed here to be a center if you read his first comments when they inked him.
backes was decent here the first two seasons then the inevitable injuries and age starter. I mean he was pretty instrumental in getting this sad team a playoff birth no?
guy was nothing but class when he was scratched. True leader there. He didn’t go nuts in the heat of the moment.
this is how this place rolls though (not saying you)
praise the guys leadership coming in, then when he has something not glowing after his playing days he’s a hater or bitter. It’s pathetic.. he was nothing but a professional here.
honestly can’t wait for Folignos comments about how this team is run when he leaves. Should be great.
