Might as well ride the season out and pray something crazy happens, like the Hawks missing the playoffs and then parting ways with Quenneville or something. Boy wouldn't that be a dream...
Also, not sure Darryl Sutter would be a great choice. Yeah, he won two Cups with LA, but they really weren't ever a dominant team and would just catch fire at the right time. Maybe it was coaching, maybe it was luck I dunno, but just look how much better the team is now after a coaching change, despite missing the playoffs 2 out of 3 seasons with Sutter recently.

There is something funny about this.
Meh, 2 cups in the last decade. Big deal. (!)
Plus, taking the team from this very city to the finals (and... it was in).
Yeah, maybe it was luck, not coaching.
