Gerard Gallant took Vegas to the SCF their first year I’d love to see what he could do with this roster
Dan Watson.
Any of em
A head coach with a track record at the NHL level after the last two hires would be nice.
I’d rather the corpse of Harambe over Q. Fuck him forever, just like Babcock.
Having Todd McLellan back would be nice or Gerard Gallant
What is Lalonde’s winning percentage?
Woody couldn’t win with 2 of the best forwards ever. Q has too much baggage. So between Mc and Gallant…give me Gallant.
Lalondes contract ends exactly when Coopers does. There’s a plan here.
I think it’s time to end the failed lalonde experiment
Spuddy up and rot in pieces Q.
Joel Quenneville should never work in this environment again. He should never be in a position where anyone has to rely on him for their safety in their workplace.
Go work in a call center, dude. That’s what you’re fit for ✌️
Q? No thanks, too much baggage.
Woodcroft? No, couldn’t win in Edmonton. He’s not gonna move the needle here.
Gallant? Maybe to finish out the year, but thats it. He is a development assassin, exactly what you don’t want over the next few years.
McLellen? Again, maybe to finish out the year and we see how things go with him before committing long term?
I would rather we fire DL and let Tanguay interm to see if he can do anything. I mean, he runs the power play, which is one of our few bright spots.
Or we could promote Dan Watson, but that feels unlikely as the Griffs are doing great. He may be better served coaching in GR this year and potentially bring him up next year?
Sounds like you’re insinuating Q is the choice. I would much rather any of the other 3 or even keep Lalonde than see that happen.
I would take a fucking ChatGPT over Lalonde at this point.
“Thank you!” Bye, Coach Gru. It is time!
To be honest I think the Wings could use a couple more high draft picks this year to seriously set them on the path to success with the next coach.
I also think it extends beyond the head coach, you need great assistant coaches, and sometimes you need to hire a big name to get those great assistants.
I’m not so sure about any of these guys.
Gallant was who I hope they grabbed after Cassidy went to Vegas. Happy to see him work with this team if they can shed Lalonde. At least we’d see some passion.
I still say I want THE PROFESSOR
Any of the ones not named Q.
Can Dan Cambell coach two teams at once?
I just want to see him on skates at a practice taking a scrimmage with the guys to get them fired up. Imagine a Dan Cambell on skates? I say we make it happen.
In all seriousness though it needs to be Gallant.
I was calling for Gallant long before the Lalonde hire.
We missed the boat not hiring Chief.
I’d pass on 3 of these 4.
McLellan I guess I wouldn’t have a problem with. He’s not my first choice but he’s got a Calder cup as a head coach, a Stanley cup with us in ‘08 as an assistant, and he’s coached some teams to some notable success.
Gallant? Fuck no. Absolutely, positively, no. Gallant has coached some successful teams, including Vegas to the SCF to their inaugural season final run, but he fucked up pretty much every prospect he touched, most notably in New York. With us still being a developing team I don’t want him anywhere near our club.
Woodcroft, I’ll pass. The experience isn’t there, and considering Edmonton made a cup final immediately after they dumped him, which seemed reactionary at the time, it makes me question whether he’s as capable as it seemed initially.
Lastly, there’s Q. I don’t think much needs to be said here, but I will just in case. Look, if we’re talking coaching merit alone, I’d definitely take him. But we obviously aren’t just talking about that. So no thanks, there are other options and what he *might* bring to the table isn’t worth it.
As far as anyone else? I’d take Boudreau. I think he’s a better coach than he’s given credit for and he seems to be able to bring quite a bit of offense out of his teams. That aside I dunno who else there is I’d want that has experience. Maybe Claude Julien? He has a Stanley cup, a Jack Adams, and some experience with young/up-and-coming teams. Other than that, eh. We’ll have to see. I’m just done with Lalonde.
If Steve picked Q I would lose my fandom probably for life… It wouldn’t just ruin the team to have that fuckface, it would tarnish all the magic of the 90s and 00s knowing The Captain hired that horrible person
