I think his leash is likely very long. I just wish he would juggle things around a little more. Play with the lines a bit. And stop the overkilling lines and distribute the minutes a little more.
listening to PoMO talk to reporters, he is a bit too smug at times as he tends to forget he hasn't won a SC yet....
2001-2002 Conference Champs?Set aside the Stanley Cup, he has never won anything as the coach (not counting consolation prizes) from what I could tell.
Much better ice time distribution tonight by him. He also kept Morrissey on the PP which was another positive.
It's amazing what happens when the lines being distributed actually play well enough to warrant their time.
I get the chicken / egg thing - they won't get better until they play more - but there has to be a balance - a little give and take. The lines gave a little more last night.
Of course, every coach who has won a Stanley Cup was at one time a coach who had never won a Stanley Cup. So, I don't worry too much about what he has done in the past. I save my concerns for the here and now.

Saw some science news on CBC about the chicken and egg thing. After some sort of chemical analysis of something or other, it looks like the chicken came first. That must have been one helluva surprised chicken.
Your point is well taken but it's not as if the first line was playing well enough to justify their ice time either. If your going to give one line the leeway to play through their struggles you should give the other ones the same leeway.
Actually, the rooster came first.........Saw some science news on CBC about the chicken and egg thing. After some sort of chemical analysis of something or other, it looks like the chicken came first. That must have been one helluva surprised chicken.

The egg came first and Maurice is mediocre with the best team in the league.I think science has shown that birds likely came from dinosaurs, so I'd imagine the Dinosaur came first.

Evolution disagrees with both statements.
How So? For any changes to be made the egg would need hatched first. Evolution does change as you're living
The origin I guess wouldn't even be an egg it would be a single celled organism that eventually evolved to become some kind of Archosaur that laid an egg and it's ancestors eventually had to a series of mutations that eventually became a chicken. But can we prove that every ancestors of chickens always laid eggs?
