Confirmed with Link: Travis Green named new head coach

[Tuna99]

This whole back & forth started with me responding to your post in which you stated we should draft a forward, and I replied that a RD was the greater need. Somehow we have ended up on a tangent per your above post. I’m glad you agree that a defender that can both move the puck and defend would be better. If you want to draft a forward and think its better, then fine. You are entitled to your opinion. I’ll leave it that because I’m finding this back & forth with you a little too flakey for my tastes.

That’s so kind of you, thanks for your feedback, you’re are a great conversationalist, you must do well in the Costco line

I wonder if Rod Brindamour could become available....after 13 seasons in coaching as an assistant coach and head coach in Carolina, maybe he will need a change of scenery...a fresh start.
He is an Ottawa boy...well at least born in Ottawa.
Staios should have waited and thrown 4 sheets ( $4 million a season) his way and attempted to get Brindamour instead of Mr. Green Jeans.

Really wish management had shown a bit more patience. Imagine Rod the Bod training Stutzle, the dude would become absolutely jacked and Tkachuk would become so strong he'd break the plexiglass with his hits.

If money became an issue in talking with Berube then we wouldn't have even been close on RBA.

I mean, we can hire professional physical trainers if that's all you're worried about, they probably already have some...

Yeah but would they be as cool as this

Did anyone hear that we gave Green 4 years because LA and NJ wanted him too?

Sounds like a classic scam

I heard there were other teams interested. Why wouldn't they be. The people that do the hiring there do not have access to Hockeydb to form their opinions.

Green reporting for duty

@Micklebot please fix the rendering of tweets so they show up or tell me how to do it. It used to be swap x. with twitter. and it worked. not any more

I just read it on SilverSevenSens. Hadn't seen any thing before. Does that change things, this new information? Did we outbid other teams or did we overpay?

Leafs get Berube

 

[ACLEVERNAME]

Nice little video. I've settled into the 'Travis Green' hiring. Of course results are all that matters in the end but I wish him all the best and hope he takes us there eventually.

Also, that Dave 'Pouly' Poulin introduction and handshake @2:00 has some strong 'Pierre' vibes to it. Hope he gets more behind-the-scenes spots eventually. I miss Dorion so bad for that

He'll ask Knies if Marner's working hard enough and we'll go full circle

First impressions:

1. He's holding his coffee cup in the same hand as his workbag, which indicates a creative approach towards problem solving, balancing different needs to the benefit of the entire whole.

2. He puts the bag down before engaging with the players to ensure good handshaking posture, showing that he has the capacity to plan two or three steps ahead, which indicates the ability to soundly out-think his opposing number behind the opposition's bench.

3. He's comfortable with the cup in either hand, indicating that he has no real preference for left or right side talent. He's willing to extend either side the benefit of the doubt when it comes to drafting strategies for the team.

4. He wears a tie, but it's not knotted too tightly, indicating that he wishes to convey respect but is not slavishly devoted to convention and the appearance of doing the right thing at the expense of expediency.

5. Following his coffee, he clearly has a San Pellegrino in his hand later in the video, showing that he's cognizant of the dehydrating effects of coffee and a clear inference that he takes good health and fitness seriously for the team.

6. His use of a notepad in place of loose paper or cards shows an organized willingness to learn, adding additional information to his remarks as opposed to simply bringing his speech in completed form with no room for comments, additions or feedback. It's a clear sign of the fact that believes in the concept of continuous education and learning.

To get it to work, click the 3 dots highlighted below to bring up the highlighted "insert media" button. A pop up window will prompt you to paste in the URL, I think you need to swap out x for Twitter manually, otherwise it comes up with an error but if you do that it should work.

thanks I will give that method a try next time.

Also before you copy the link...click on it get the Https to show up , then change x for twitter and copy the whole url including the https and it works.

They don't have a choice at this point.

We're a lot like the Leafs but without any playoff appearances to show for it.

Long-term contracts without results, concerns that players run the dressing room.

Interesting that we both went after taskmaster coaches who may or may not have limited shelf lives.

 

[JungleBeat]

Travis Green will fix the mentality of this weak minded group. He’ll get them to play like men and not whine and cry like babies.

You were 5 years old when you registered for HF?

Gotta admit, that's impressive.

I like the berube vs green matchup.

 

[Senscore]

Leafs getting Berube is basically Babcock 2.


Not sure what he's gonna do that others didn't.
