I’m a fan of trading Brodie only if the right deal is there(top 6 RW with game break g potential)
I have also been on the “change the assistant coaches” side of thinking. So it’s not like I have an agenda.
What is the right move? No one knows until there is success from a change. So you have to take a calculated risk and the move with the least risk at this time of the season is to fire GG and perhaps spark this team with some confidence in the systems, especially special teams.

I share this line of thinking. I still have hope that this team can be really good. On paper they have a good group and maybe the right coach can help them put it together. If a new coach doesn't work then maybe you do have to take a serious look at the players and shake things up.
I would also be open to trading Brodie for the right player. I'd even consider Hamilton. You can likely get more for him and maybe Brodie back with Gio gets him playing like his old self. I like Hamilton but at the same time I think we would still have a solid top 4 and we have some good prospects coming up to fill the bottom roles.
