GDT: Game 56: Coyotes @ Sharks - 7:30PM - Rick, this is your Coyotes Life!

[SniperHF]

The season is coming to a close and that means a high likelihood that Rick Tocchet's contract is not renewed! While I suppose it's possible the team does in fact renew it's still a good opportunity to discuss:

RICK TOCCHET, THIS IS YOUR LIFE!....With the Coyotes!

Sure we could get into his playing days here, where those worse than remembered early Coyotes teams couldn't get out of the first round.

Or we could talk about his time as an assistant under Gretzky and how that all ended.....

Instead let's just remember the times we had watching the Tocchet head coached Coyotes!



It was a record setting start to your Coyotes head Coaching career!
Coyotes become 1st NHL team to go 20 games into the season without a regulation win


Then there was that time we couldn't score a goal for so long we created a whole GDT Prefix for it!
Goal-Day Thread - Game 3: Coyotes @ Ducks - 7PM - FSAZ


And we can't forget about your coaching philosophy!
Coyotes learning Rick Tocchet's dictionary of hockey terms

And your poise on the bench!

BUT THERE WERE A FEW GOOD TIMES

AND THERE WERE SOME HEADACHES

Just remember, at the least when it's all said and done.....
We were fine at the 5 on 5!

This is F40 Ring Of Dishonor stuff.

I'm still trying to forget that we ever used Hjalmarsson in a shootout.

Derek Stepan taking a slap shot and then smiling about missing is a memory I can't get rid of. I hate you for reminding me of this @SniperHF

Were any goalies harmed in the making of this GDT?

I remember that first game against Anaheim where it was like river hockey and we were up 4-1 after two periods.

We thought it was a sign of what was to come.

It was...for Anaheim.

Who’s better at dismantling the Coyotes, RT, or Corey Perry?

Perry was the first, but RT’s got (hopefully had) the staying power.

 

[TheLegend]

Hearing there will be an Aaron Ness sighting tonight.


Ness has been stuck on the taxi squad the entire season.

The good soldier: Aaron Ness staying upbeat despite a season with no games played

 

[RemoAZ]

What about Hayton? Bueller....Bueller....Bueller.......

Whoa. Haha. Just saw I stole your bit!!!

 

[MIGs Dog]

Whoa. Haha. Just saw I stole your bit!!!

Great minds...or maybe just masters of the obvious.

[Neighborhood Coyote]

Alrighty! One last game of the season. It's gonna be a big off season (hopefully)...

It's been sometimes fun, mostly frustrating haha but I'm glad we got to see hockey this season.

 

[LittlePipes]

At least its not the Hamilton or Seattle or Houston or whatever Coyotes!

Last game doesn't get the live thread treatment? Not enough people posting to warrant it?

It was live ten minutes before you posted.

Looks like Demers will get to 700 games elsewhere. He was at 699.

Wasn't showing that way for me. I won't mention it again for several months.

That Lyubushkin/Ness pairing has the making of quite the adventure.
