This may shock you, but it's possible to have well-reasoned opinion and reaction, based off of information, before things play out...
Is that what has happened, though? I have seen people raise legitimate concerns about this hire, but then, I have seen a number of others leaping to some completely unfounded conclusions:

- that this was a hire not based on merit
- that Huska can't coach offense
- that Conroy and his team are only interested in "character" at the expense of winning
- that Huska is nothing more than a good developmental coach
- that Huska has been passed over for
- that multiple NHL jobs
- that Love is an obviously superior candidate
- that Huska has been part of the problem
- that this decision was made to placate players

Some of these things may be true; possibly all of them are not. We can't know from where we are here and now.

I hope Huska does well. I have no reason to form expectations, one way or the other.
