I disagree. He fully deserves all the bashing he received. All of it. There's no excuse for torpedoing a season like he did. No excuse at all when you are paid millions to coach a team to win hockey games. Don't sell him short with the "only way he knows stuff". He's far more intelligent than that and exactly what he was doing this season and it was all about showing the players who's boss and not winning hockey games. His ice time deployment of plugs at critical moments in games where the team needed goals was absolutely criminal.
