You just said his options were a ****ty defenseman, a slow and injured defenseman, and a rookie with no playoff experience that was struggling.
So your food analogy should be more like saying here’s a rotten tomato, some expired bread, and some mystery meat... make me a great sandwich.
You could certainly bring a new coach in that may jump start them for a couple months, but in the end the self-inflicted flaws JR created will bubble back to the surface and cause major issues IMHO.
I didn't say the meal with mediocre ingredients would be great, but it shouldn't kill you either
Tell me all the adjustments Sully did during the Isles series
-Did he try to get Sid on/off quickly vs their 4th line? Nope
-Did he attempt a left wing lock or trap himself vs the Isles when he saw his players getting outplayed? Nope
- Did he do anything outside of the Maata/JJ trial in terms of his personnel choices? The injury to McCann doesn't count as that forced him to play Blueger. Sully could have scratched a hobbled ZAR or an ineffective Garrett Wilson in favor of Blueger or AJ. Yet chose none of the above because going down 0-3 requires no adjustments apparently
