My biggest concern with Gallant would be he doesn’t seem to mesh real well with finesse, skill players.

Tatar, Shipachyov, and Gusev were all run out of town by him.

To be fair, Tatar is really the only one to make him look silly for it though. Gusev is fine, and Shipachyov immediately left for Russia (has been over a PPG since returning though). You could also argue Gusev was just a victim of the salary cap.

His Florida teams performed average at best and immediately after he left Huberdeau and Barkov exploded offensively.

He seems to go against management a little too. Vegas traded a first, second, and third for Tatar which is a high price to pay only to have him healthy scratched for over half of their playoff games.

With that being said you can’t argue with his results.
