Newsflash - sometimes, just working harder isn't the answer, especially if you don't know what to work harder at.
And why hasn't the coaching staff developed a method to react when the opposition sends 2 or 3 forecheckers in. It is like they only have an answer for 1 forechecker. Anything more and we get the running around in circles technique. And to me, that is a sign they don't know what to do.
As much as I hate another coach, I have come to believe that instead of the "bright" new coach, I think Tre should be looking for a coach that can coach this team. And with the years of reporting to a head coach, Ward is struggling with in-game decisions.

I think they need somebody that has an actual NHL resume that they respect. The common denominator between all these coaches is they are rookies or have had little success. If we could get a big name in here that provides the leadership missing from this group who is tough but fair and will hold guys accountable.... I think we will see more consistency. Its hard to take someone serious that's never had any real success no matter how nice they are (they also need personel moves there is more than one issue going on here).
