Sounds like Hartley

The Process belongs to the Philadelphia 76ers.

Trust the process

That has been the motto for several rank fueled years. Finally turning a corner now though

Looks like they're hiring a communications intern. Might be a good landing spot for him.

Going to need to be quicker if we want to land a legitimate coach in AV. I have no idea why he hasn't been let go yet. Ridiculous.

I don't get the hurry, either for the Flames or AV.

The longer you wait the more options you might have, for both sides.

Maybe they're waiting until the end of round 1 to see if any more coaches get the boot.

I honestly think you can just go ahead and forget about AV, even if Treliving decides to can Gulutzan. AV has Dallas and Jim Nill written all over him IMO.

What are your guys thought of Sheldon Keefe?

I don't know much about him but I've been reading good things about him, including his past success. He also utilizes youth and veterans evenly and focuses on individual growth as a player.

If the Caps get upset by the BJs I wonder if Trotz gets fired?

He may very well end up a good coach, but at the same time I really want a veteran NHL coach this time instead of some newcomer.

The article on Babcock I linked a while back said he really didn’t come in with a different system in Toronto, but he had the name and credibility to enforce it on his players. That’s why Calgary may need a “name” coach.

To be fair. The Optics of firing Gulutzen right after the Humboldt tragedy is probably pretty bad. Especially since he went there representing the Flames.

Edit: or it is the new Coyotes Monday announcement

Incogneto's post was "As Early As" Monday. I kind of felt it was a little poke because that was pretty much day #1 of when he would be fired.

Then you think about the process to begin the actual process of beginning the real process and it gets really hairy. We could be here a while.
