Hard to imagine but I wonder if DeBoer may be coaching for his job in game 6. I don't know how the organization could justify bringing him back after their showings in the conference finals the past two seasons. He's simply not pushing any of the right buttons to get his guys going. There's enough talent on this team that any average head coach could easily get them into the playoffs, but they need a guy that's going to take them to the next level in the playoffs and DeBoer has never really been able to do that with any of the teams he's coached as he's good enough to win a round or two consistently and not any further save for that one Sharks run.
