The condescending tone and lack of knowledge in this post is hilarious. Dave Tippett is one of the winningest coaches in the league post lockout. Don Maloney has assembled a playoff team without an owner, contract flexibility or a large budget. If the Coyotes make the playoffs this year they will have managed to get the hopeless Phoenix Coyotes into the playoffs 3 consecutive seasons; no Canadian franchise outside of Vancouver will have done that, despite much larger budgets. They both are respected and have the awards to show just what the league thinks of them. Should the QC franchise fire them, they will be the top coach and GM candidates available.
I will be very disappointed if the QC team focuses solely on being french rather than an actual hockey organization. It's stupid. More importantly, it doesn't work. The fact that you guys would cast away one of the best coach/GM tandems in the league so readily is disappointing. I expected QC fans to be a little more knowledgeable. Hearing that the potential owner is "all about da french" ruins, for me, what would otherwise be a great destination for the team. If the new owner was smart he'd do everything possible to keep Tippett and Maloney with the organization. With more resources and fans provided by QC, those 2 could easily deliver a cup to the Nordiques.
Isn't that why the games are played?

I admit Tippet did a great job for the Coyotes, but Maloney in my opinion is overrated. He had a pletora of good young forwards and discarted all of them away for almost nothing.
