Post the score and close the site?

The point is for everyone to exercise an ounce of humility in expressing their own opinions about this. I have all the time in the world for those who are sceptical about this hire, have good reasons for their scepticism, but are also self-secure and aware enough to recognize that their own opinion is also extremely limited and likely very flawed. I have no time for those who insist that their opinions are facts, and that selecting the right coach in this coaching search was an obvious choice that every fan endorsed.

This whole we don't have enough info, don't rush to judgement, any opinion formed without all the facts is not a good opinion crap is just complete bull####. People, believe it or not are able to form opinions on all kinds of things including hockey coaches based on available information. We do it in everyday life all the time. Hell, people probably married somebody and lived long happy lives with less info than we can gather on this coach.

No. Being honest about the things that we do not know is not "crap." It is the truth. The thing is, in this instance it is an admission on behalf of the ENTIRE fanbase that honestly does not have all the facts. It is a good step towards learning, and a position that I certainly respect a good deal more than those who are certain about everything they know.
