I know his system is boring at times but under Hartley we are even worse. If Brent was bought back and Hartley was fired then i wouldn't be upset at all.

Whatever the Bruins scored 9 goals on us when Brent was in charge. Brent coached a boring style and also took a team that was 5 years straight in the playoffs to 3 straight misses. Remember it how you want but this team was falling apart no matter who coached it. Brent saw that at the end of last season which is why he mutually parted ways with the team.
Brent had this team in the bottom 5-10 in the standings after 35 games a couple of times and was the coach during a 9 game losing streak. On top of that letting 8 in against the Oilers the day of trade deadline with your starting goalie, franchise player, and top Dman recently traded is not surprising. Do you think the players had the game on their mind that day? They all thought they were getting moved
