I'm not even a Geoff Ward guy ... I wasn't high on bringing him back.
Given how this group has gone through coaches, I liked that they all liked going to war for him but I didn't like his lack of adaptability in the Dallas series (both in tactics when the "Winnipeg plan" wasn't working, and in roster when he stuck with things when Tkachuk went down), and the way he handled the Talbot pull.
But this blame everything on him day in and day out has an effect of trying to beat back the extremes.
It's a character flaw of mine!
