I don't believe most of those people that thanked really believe he's the answer deep down. There are posters that have an overly positive nature and always hope for the best and you also have the mods that for the most part tow the company line. I'm not criticizing those posters because everyone should be free to cheer as they feel and plenty have a tough time dealing with posters they feel are negative. I knew the moment he was hired he was likely never going to be the guy but that doesn't mean I haven't hoped I was wrong. I would support him if he could get this team playing up to it's talent but it's just not happening and this is not a season the team can afford to miss the playoffs. A lot of posters are still hoping that with every win the team is finally turning things around despite the fact that the pattern of good/bad play has been the only pattern under Gulutzan in 1.5 seasons. I don't think even the most positive posters can deny that the team has been mired in mediocrity for most of his term as head coach as they are a below .500 team in regulation play in his time here.
