I am okay with the Assistants.. how the goalie coaches continue to stay is beyond me.

LaBarbera is fine. This will be his 3rd year. So far he's batting .500.

Sigalet on the other hand. Should just be rebranded Goalie scout.

Perfect, if Markstrom pulls another .892, should be good for the draft pick LOL

I would say i'm not signing long term too with those AC's.

Why is our goalie coach situation unchanged? I don't get that one.

Don't want to be negative in regards to these decisions but I was hoping for a bit more experience.

I would have preferred a staff of experienced coaches to better compliment the lack of experience that Huska has as a head coach.

The goalie staff coming back also seems quite questionable.

Anywho I don't have any inside information and maybe they all did amazing in the interviews, might just have to use a wait and see approach here.

Imagine overseeing a goalie tandem with an .892 average and then getting extended.

Was hopeful to see Love or Tanguay as part of the coaching staff.

I was speaking with one of the local coaches recently who has also played at a high level, and who had a great quote.

It is the exact same staff that was within six goals of winning the Jennings Trophy.

Lambert is a guy to help the PP and forwards. Had a rough year last year in Nashville, but the year before they had the 6th best PP compared to the 13th best GF/G.

I don't really know what MacLean brings other than our ability to make cool Die Hard references, but hey, Huska knows and likes him.

Let's hope they at least keep a good room this year. They're going to need it based on the exodus of talent about to happen.

Does Sutter's defensive shot-suppressing system have anything to do with it?
