We have seen now a guy coming directly to NHL head coach spot without having absolutely any experience of coaching adults. He went and won the title of a very hard division. Right after that regular season a lot of people expected it to continue in playoffs and indeed, there was a nice set of home wins against Wild in playoffs. But it ended in disaster with a Game 7 first round home loss in overtime. Over the summer he won the Jack Adams Award. Then this guy was basically challenged to show what advanced stats are about - answer could be read from 2014-15 results. Avs were at the very least supposed to challenge for a playoff spot seriously, some people thought even challenging for the division title again. Now, 31 games later, the result is five regulation wins.
So what is the actual level of Patrick Roy the coach - We all know where he is coming from, but what is your opinion, where is he going to? How long will he be a head coach in NHL? Will he be successful and if, what would you consider as success for him as a head coach?
