Obviously every player will have a unique relationship with their coach but that is the gist of it. Fans also make too big of a deal out of players disliking their coach, I would wager half the players in the league currently don’t like who is behind their bench. Out of the best coaches, MOST of them are not well liked by their players (Babcock, Sutter, Hitchcock). Only top end coach that I have heard is well liked is Quenville
Do you have any rationale on the reason why? I mean, being known as a player coach, you would think most guys like him. I can get why people hate Hartley, but to hate GG, that's an interesting point.
