We can just look at his results and observe that in his time here he has not been objectively good. I am of the opinion that he is not a good coach, specifically, not for this team at this time. That opinion is simply based on his record with us and personal observation.

While I agree that some posters have an irrational dislike for GG, I don't think that discredits the entire idea of him not being the right coach for us. Also, I disagree that the discussion and analysis we have seen here is for the sake of "proving" that he is a bad coach. Rather, I think that discussion (i.e., misuse of players, game management, locker room culture) is simply an explanation of the rationale behind our (the GG haters) opinions.

I don't think it is fair to characterize all the GG haters as fanatics who think they should coach in the NHL. There is a lot of valid rationale behind these opinions, as has already been discussed.

I'm curious as to the rationale behind the pro-GG group's opinions, what makes you believe he is a good coach? Possession stats? Stability?

Hope this post makes sense, still haven't fully woken up.
Definitely a lot of rationale in this post.
