Is he the 'Greatest Coach?' I dunno. Probably not, but is he maybe the coach we need right now?
But he's got some new ideas, fresh ideas, for what is going to be a very young, learning team, and maybe thats a good fit?
I'm not sure. But at the moment we dont have a lot to lose in order to find out.
If anything I'd wager that Marc Savard was useless.

Was he useless? He coached a good PP in St. Louis with not much better talent.
I do think he stuck his nose in a bit on the offensive side of the puck and PP. He said so himself and it is his right because he is the head coach, but the final decision lays with him. He did say the PK was his baby so he would he helping on that side, and the PK was good.
He did the right thing in scrapping the man on man defence to a zone defence, not sure you can blame him for the players not grasping the system well. Same group who would get knifed through, and make dumb switch mistakes under Sutter and his man on man.
