You have to ask yourself if he did everything a coach could do to try to win that series. Did he even sit Jarry, did he make any major shake ups in the lineup, etc.
The answer is no. Yea, the back up was relatively unproven, but Jarry made it clear he wasn’t going to win you the game. Sully’s stubbornness likely cost us that series, and that same stubbornness continues to play guys that might not make an AHL team or some European leagues.
So while it might not be a big deal to you that we play ECHL guys nightly, it shows Sully has serious issues. If Jarry implodes or if one his turds lose us a game, will he even sit them?
The only players ever held accountable are DeSmith and Kap. Everyone else can play awful with no repercussions.
Sully has been ineffective now as long as he was a great coach. The time to move on was after the Habs series.
But but but then we wouldn’t have dominated the Isles (and still lost) without Sully!
