people whined about hitch so they go out and find someone else and they whine about that. cant make this stuff up.
i dont like the move because you dont know what will be on the market come next offseason but its not like its the end of the world. he got a awful/mediocre minnesota team to the second round twice while we choked in the first round, once to them
There is a lot worse choices out there. Yes wasn't on the top of my list but he does know how to add speed to a defensive system and I think he will make our D Corps even better. Rick Wilson I am not a fan of, Hitch's close friend and associate coach with the Stars. When is this in with the old mentality going to end.
Pretty sure the people who don't like Hitch (like me) didn't just want ANYONE. Especially knowing that this would for sure, 100% be his last season... jumping in on getting Yeo so fast is a pretty bad idea.
For instance for some of the reasons you said, who knows who could be available at the end of the season?
I seriously wonder why Yeo gets to get a sweet deal like this but Muller or Shaw were 1-year or nothing.
And people think I am crazy for Armstrong using tactics to push certain people out but making it look like they chose to leave the Blues.
Who exactly is a premier coach? Look who was in the SCFs this year. All the top coaches were bounced in the first 2 rounds.Armstrong must have felt boxed into a corner because Yeo is simply not a premier coach in this league who is being treated as such. The market was thin for good coaching candidates, the uncertainty had already driven out the assistants and it made more sense to see the year play out. Instead he acquiesced to Yeo's initial demands. I'm annoyed.
Calgary and Anaheim still haven't filled their head coaching positions, have they? Who the $?%! is left for them that has any significant track record?
