This guy is a clown he's gone after this year if we don't have success.
This guy should be gone now! IMHO. What in the great dado is this nut job looking at.
"Patrick Kane, he's seen it all and then some"
He has indeed. Pat debuted in the NHL at 18 years old (he scored 7/15/22 in 20 games as an 18 year old). He is now entering his 18th NHL season.
He has had Denis Savard, Joel Quenneville, Jeremy Colliton, Derek King, Luke Richardson, Gerard Gallant, and Derek Lalonde as head coaches in the NHL. He's seen 4 of them get fired while he was there (so far). He's also in his career been teammates w several guys who've become coaches or GMs in this league (Andrew Brunette, Kevyn Adams, Chris Drury), and been coached by another slew of guys in international play (Ron Wilson, Dan Bylsma, Blashill). He's also been mentored at various stages by current NHL GM Pat Verbeek, and by the greatest coach in the history of ice hockey, Scotty Bowman. He has seen every kind of coach, seen coaches come and go.
If you got his unfiltered candid opinion of Derek Lalonde it would not be good.
Let’s get to the games that count midway between now and trade deadline if we don’t see the moves and mixes of teammates that get us going after playoffs then accountability is coming
"Hey Derek do you thi…" "That's an EXCELLENT question"
Kasper has played his way onto the team, unless there is just a contractual/money issue keeping him off.
