Well not exactly...you couldn't just put me out there but I am talking a qualified professional coach. They certainly make a difference but it's pretty minor IMO.
Babcock is/was the best coach in the NHL with his stacked Wings team. Dead last with a ####ty Leafs roster...now they have an average roster and are average.
On topic you can't take Hartley's cup away from him because he had a great team. Most winners do.
