It's the height of stupidity allowing a coach with no success to drive a star player out of town, only to come to the realization that coach is an waste of space and needed to go after all. And yes, we have watching this play out with this club before.
It takes a helluva lot more to draft and develop a player than it does to find a new coach. When you find some talent that can play the game at the NHL level, and be a star at the NHL level, you adjust the system to use their strengths. You don't mess with them and make them change their game to where they are ineffective. This is where this team is right now IMO, they are not using the talent effectively and entrusting in an individual who has shown no success in what he does. It is mind numbing to consider this team would place Gulutzan ahead of a player. WTF has Glen Gulutzan ever done to earn this latitude? This just has Marc Savard/Greg Gilbert written all over it.

I really hope you’re wrong about the Marc savard thing...
But you are absolutely right and the system needs to be flexible to suit the players. Let’s face it. It is easier to replace a coach than to replace your key players and that’s what probably needs to happen
