Because Johnny doesn’t care?

Give me a break

Why even bother hiring a coach? Just bring in a new motivational speaker every week. That oughta win you some games

Lol
Well after 4 coaches some of the core players deserve their fair share of the blame.

I think coaching could be upgraded. I hope it is in fact.

I just don't think that will magically solve the biggest problem the team has had this year, the scared, soft, careless play of Gaudreau.

I mean we're arguing about two separate issues here. I originally only took issue with your suggestion that a coaching change might turn Gaudreau into a Patrick Kane or a Mitch Marner. I think that's absurd to pin the difference on those players on the coach. It's quite clear that Gaudreau is no Kane and no coach is going to change that unless Johnny himself wants to change it.

Is there room for improvement in the coaching? Sure is. I'd love to get an upgrade there. But anyone suggesting Gaudreau's poor play is on the coach is out to lunch IMO.
