The old “hard to play against” is a bit of a cliche maybe. I don’t know if that’s necessarily a hallmark of a great coach. Would you say that about Babcock, Quenneville or Vigneault teams? Were the Penguins hard to play against?

I’m not sure what kind of reassurance to take from “well they are not hiring him due to demonstrated success”
‘Hard to play against’ is within a coach’s sphere of influence
‘Getting the most out of player x’ is as well

Aren’t the Penguins hard to play against? Isn’t that cliche a cliche for loser teams? Yeah you beat them, did you have to work for it?

This 31 thoughts had some disappointing perspective on Peters
