This is so weak.
Do you really think that an interim coach who badgers players constantly was going to get full buy in and turn things around?
Do you think that is the approach that Tippett will employ?
Really?
Is Hitchcock known as a very good defensive coach? Yes. Did the Oilers improve defensively under him? No. Unless the roster is markedly improved, Tippett will make as much difference as a fart in a hurricane.
Smith was brutal on a much better team than ours, with a defenceman that won the god damn Norris. Expecting some miracle bounce back “because structure” is hilariously naive.
