Anyone down for Crawford as assistant?

Reverse of 96 Avalanche?

Crawford as an assistant may not be so bad, I wouldnt mind Jacques Martin, now that the Sens went with Smith.

They would all be able to play defense, for sure.

Just curious, was Macfarland the coach that ran the Panthers PP? You guys had an unstoppable machine 5 on 4. Good luck next year, I’m sure Quennville will have you guys contending especially after you add Panarin.

Supposedly he did, and supposedly he ran the PP the season before last, where we were 21st in the league. Hoffman had 17 goals on the PP this season, and we had two other players that scored over 10 goals as well. The season before last, we only had one (Trocheck, 13goals), so who can really say why we saw an improved PP this season. Regardless, I would have liked to see him retained, but Im sure Q knows what he is doing.

Mike Kitchen is à guarantee per GR...

When was he here ? With Jacques Martin ?

Both assistants are apparently hired. Richards thinks they’ll announce both of the around the draft.

I'll guess Brunette and if not him Dineen

 

[ShootIt]

Seeing Dineen behind the bench would be something.

it wasnt nearly as good as the numbers showed. tons of lucky/bad goals. it was just an above avg. pp that massively overachieved. all things being equal we wouldve ranked around 12th next year. it actually overachieved to such an extent that adding panarin and Q i expect the numbers to still drop markedly.

I don’t know if Q is going to bring over the same coaching staff he had in Chicago but one of the biggest gripes they had with him was how they ran their PP. I just remember when the sharks played FLA that their puck movement was awesome to watch... almost Sedin like at times

The power play didnt over achieve at all.

Dont listen to him. The execution was great. The PP was excellent. However, we allowed an egregious amount of SHGs so...yeah..it didnt overachieve in my opinion.

Good to hear. I lived in FL for awhile so I’ve always had a soft spot for the Panthers. I hope you guys have a good run next year.

yea except the pp overachieved in a big way. dont listen to him about not listening to me.

 

[vendetta]

The pp did not overachieve. But it wasn’t a coaching masterpiece either. It was simple with everyone playing their roles very well. Adding Hoffman and his one timer opened up everyone else.

 

[ProjectPanthers]

The PP has Mike Hoffman to thank and only Mike Hoffman. His shot made the opposition respect him and created space for everyone else.

He's the soul reason it performed as well as it did this year.

parking barkov in front of the net helped, too.

Surprisingly effective... I was totally against this originally but his but body and great hands worked there

Didn't Tallon fire Dineen? How would that situation NOT be awkward....

Because at the end of the day they're all professionals and they're all getting paid. The past is the past, the only thing that matters is putting up W's next year.

Nothing that about five pints over dinner wouldn’t cure....

You have to admit, seeing us have success next year with Mike Kitchen AND Kevin Dineen behind the bench would be hilarious as both have been dismissed by Tallon in the past.

Agreed... whatever works. Get er done.
