Not trying to moderate the discussion but it seems like now isn’t exactly the best time to argue Trotz should be gone.
A lot has happened since this poll. I don't know that it's even relevant now.
Trotz has earned an extension if there was ever a question about one!
This logic just sort of assumes it's all gravy from here on out and that really shouldn't be the case. If they're swept by Tampa Bay (doubtful but let's run with it) then the season may be a success in terms of incremental progress but I still wouldn't call it enough sustained post-season progress. They need to be very highly competitive in this series or else I'd be more inclined to chalk up their success to a Pittsburgh team that sort of ran out of gas. It wasn't that simple but that combined with some nagging injuries opens the door for that series victory to not carry quite as much weight as it otherwise might on its own. It's still helpful psychologically in being the team to end their run and shut them down but there remain crucial chapters to be written here.Trotz has earned an extension if there was ever a question about one!
I’m giddily preparing myself for a pot luck style feast of every recipe of crow imaginable...
