Nope. I want to see you behind the bench. That's all. Nothing more. Nothing less fans yelling at you for a decision and you scream back "still better than Letowski!!!" The visual is actually making me laugh.
Sure sounds like u r.
Maybe it makes me laugh.....
The response about W7 coaching is because it'd amuse me. All he does is complain about the coaching. So, I'd like to see him behind the bench. I've criticized TL many times on here and elsewhere, but I've also given props where due (start of 2019-20). Frankly, I'd be interested to see reactions if TL got fired and they brought in someone who was more defensive -minded. Heads would explode.
Saying W7 to coach behind the bench when he isn't a hockey coach is merely trying to deflect from the job Letowski has done as coach and wanting to be right by believing there is one person Letowski is better at with coaching.
If you want to think it's a deflection, go for it. It's not the reality but reality hasn't really existed over the last year.
As for TL - yes, I've defended him on multiple occasions. You can toss the comment about the World Juniors out if you wish but Team Canada still put him there. They clearly see something in him and I'm going to trust their judgement more times than not. I've also questioned TL more than a few times this past season, including his insistence on going back to the same old habits that cost us games in the past. If you've read my stuff over the last year, you'd know this.
Should TL return? No. While he has plenty of upside (see: his system adjustment in first half 2019-20), his tendency to fall back into old habits is frustrating at best. If the team moved on, I'd have no issues. The willingness to change and adapt was there but you cannot fall into unproven ways when times get tough.
(can we bookmark this incase any "you never criticize anyone on the club" stuff comes up in the future??)
The word around social media is that Steve Bell has been let go by Bell Media. Just like that, no warning. If it's the case, just brutal.
The Steve Bell news has brought me out of hibernation. What a loss for the sport fans in this city! I’m sure he won’t be replaced they’ll probably just use Mike & Lisa to read the Sports news. Local stuff will go the way of the Dodo. $$$ are the way of the world. I hope Beller will find a position in the area quickly.
Steve Bell has been named the official voice of the Spitfires.
It sounds like it will be status quo. Nothing has changed re the Spits. He was already doing mostly home games replacing Mike Miller. He stopped doing the road trips long ago. I can envision him having some sort of podcast a la Don Cherry. Perhaps focusing on Spits and the local sporting scene.Steve Bell has been named the official voice of the Spitfires.
Yea it’s a positive spin by ownership looking to shore up credibility
