He's not wrong that the playoffs are probably too long to the point where chance/health is a huge component of success but that's like the best part about that and he's absolutely wrong to want to change that

It was funnier when Tampa was the best team ever because they got swept by the worst non-Atlanta franchise since the Rockies. Boston losing still loving owns though.

Florida won the President's Trophy last year after all. Boston however is a supremely smug city, much more than Tampa, so it's more enjoyable from a schadenfreude perspective.

Yes, not practicing your 3 on 3 even once and then bitching about it is insane.

Were all the flames practices closed? How did this not become a thing even by Christmas. At the height of the Canucks PK woes there were seemingly daily tweets from reporters on the most minute of process changes. Surely at some point a player was asked some softball question “you’ve had success on the pp tonight, have you been practicing that play?” Seems to dumb to be true, so likely is.

Starsfan posted:oh hell yeah Honestly, he'd be a great fit for any team that wants to contend another one or two years and is moving off a negative coach. Calgary would work. Washington could, too, even though Lavi's kind of both upbeat and angry depending on the situation. Pittsburgh could but I really doubt they move on from Sullivan. He'd be a good fit for the Sens with their offensive talent. He could potentially rejuvenate St. Louis but I'm not sure they should be doing it. Seems like the Jets need more of a roster retool rather than a different kind of coach. Depending on what happens tonight, I think the Rangers will only go for a hard rear end next coach. Probably Q or Babcock or someone similarly insane.

I like Boudreau but he would be a disaster with the Penguins now. Defensively his teams can only go as far as the talent can carry them, which for the 2023-24 Penguins, woof. I think the Rangers will hold onto Gallant one more (maybe partial) season and then will hire Sullivan. He and the Penguins will be mutually ready for an amicable divorce after the team probably finishes well out of the playoffs next year. But with Dolan who knows.

Word is their farm team the Calgary Wrangler's head coach Mitch Love is the frontrunner which makes sense because they were the best team in the AHL this year. He's also won AHL coach of the year in back to back seasons. I support the move because the NHL needs more hardboiled Victorian detectives tortured by their failure to catch the ripper ten years prior behind the bench.
