Dallas Eakins is a terrible NHL coach. Terrible.

Yes, but Eakins is also well aware of his previous faults, has been an outstanding AHL coach for Anaheim's AHL affiliate, and will most likely know a lot of those AHL players that get called up. I'm almost 100% positive he can do a better job than RC.
