I didn't say they were awful .Yet all these coaches, despite being awful were able to make the playoffs and then suddenly things turned upside down. I'm trying to suggest the coaches are coach killers but I just don't want to see another coach come in because for one season, things didn't go the way we expected them to. I think a part of the problem there is Melnyk but for once I would like to see the players be able to work things out with the same coach.
As for the part about Dorion, this idea that Boucher calls the shots is... is...terrible. Every Coach and GM have a working relationship. Sometimes a GM gets a player the coach wants, sometimes the Coach plays a player the GM wants. If thats not happening I'd be worried.

And it is a pattern with Boucher.
As far as the GM trying to fit the players with the coaches style, I agree that is necessary but in this case perhaps a bit over the top. I cant remember another GM bringing in so many players that the coach had on previous teams.And Dorion sometimes seemed to be so smitten with his coach that
he seemed to be deferring to him.
Count Dracula: please provide quotes and proof of his motives Inception style pleaseHe said it was up to management, He has said before that he would like to be here his whole career.
Nooooooooooooooooo!I heard Andy is cooking the bacon wrapped chicken breast
Leafs fan in peace.
Dirty play by Gardiner. Don't like that at all.
I hope Stone comes back. He's a great talent.
Toronto really has been trash for over a month now. Any other division and that isn't a playoff team.
It's still disappointing that we didn't get to see all those Leaf lovers slink out of the building with another loss.Well that's Toronto's second win against us in the last 3 years. We were bound to get bit sooner or later.

Instead of practicing, Boucher is gonna have them all over to his place for pancakes & bacon. Mmmm bacon...
That whole thing is so overblown. Boucher previously coached Pyatt, Thompson and Dumont. Lots of coaches do the same because they are familiar with the player. Mike Keenan had Stephane Matthau in Chicago, New York and St. Louis. So what? Who cares?
How about watching tape? How about getting the team together and working **** out?
You don't get him away from Dumont and Burrows. You get Dumont and Burrows away from this team.Forgot to mention. I ****ing liked white last night. He played well. Looked a little more comfy on the puck. Was chill. Chlapik again looks good. But like get him the eff away from dumont and burrows
