Okay it might be an exaggeration. I guess I just struggle to see the upside in exchanging a sure fire HOF coach for a rookie. I am sure if Holland hires Blashill he is a qualified guy but I don't see any possibility of this being an upgrade. Even the slightest downgrade puts us out of the playoffs the last 3 years. How exactly could this possibly be construed as good news?
Because a change can be a good thing. Just because Babcock is one of the best coaches in the league doesn't mean, that after 10 years, it won't be beneficial to change it up. It felt like the franchise has been getting a bit stale the past few years and a change like this might be enough to reinvigorate the fans and players and mentally prepare them for a new era.
