Don't think he's really been overly positive about any of our players or prospects, but isn't really doing anything to change his own strategy either to try to improve things.
Really feels like his attitude this year is we are doing things my way, win or lose, and I'm not making adjustments.
Of course that could be all just his media persona...but based on the body language of the players and how they seem to lack confidence I doubt it. No doubt these guys lack confidence when the coach is saying how unskilled and bad you are all the time.

Yeah and the real fans thing, he is using that as way to put his approach on hockey on everyone.
The real fans want Lucic and grit and grind hockey.
If he actually talked to fans and I am not just talking here on social media he would see most people do like a hard working team but they also want to see skilled players who are allowed to play to their strengths and play a skilled game.
It was like when Brian Burke came here and said people in Alberta want Black and Blue hockey.
No some people want to watch the skill come out kind of like last years top line being allowed to play rush hockey.
