Well that was an unpleasant hour.

I'd just rather have a Babcock type coach to drill better habits into the team during the rebuild than. Say what you will about Babcock, but he helped Marner and Matthews become the two way players they are today.

[Paulie Walnuts]

Love Iggy so much.

[Macindoc]

Iggy is a beauty!

[OldSam]

At least the SN crew will be able to talk all Oilers in the intermission.

Jarome is so freaking incredible. None of the greasers could touch him.

Lately I've been thinking about it the other way. Maybe we've had incredible coaches that have gotten too much out of really poor line ups and poor talent the last 20yrs.

Is that Iggy’s first interview during a period break since becoming special advisor to the GM? That felt kinda special.

They are elite talents with or without any a-hole coach

What is Huska doing to make you think he’s a terrible head coach?

We have had similar style coaches like that. Please remind us all how well that turned out. Especially when you have a low talent team like this rendition.

If that was the case don't you think one of them may be a head coach elsewhere in the NHl?

[Ryan Coke]

Bahl has really impressed me this season.

Rasmus has been great, but he was the prime contributor to both goals against that period. Hopefully he gets himself going.

[Reggie Dunlop]

Jay Woodcroft is available.

[Matty81]

Yeah I'm curious what the beef with Huska is too... he has a bad roster I don't k ow what you can expect from him

In his first tour Sutter took them to the 7th game of the Stanley Cup. He won the West with them in his second tour. The only other coach who would really fit that description was Peters, who was fired for non performance related issues.

I want a coach who has them playing aggressively and managing the puck. Instead we have passive zone defence and cherry picking.

How many goalies are going to be able to hold their ground and freeze the puck on a save where they extend their leg and Rasmus, who is trailing Skinner is tumbling through him?

Bad take

[Goriders]

Of all of the games to not be ready for at the start. How could you not be ready for the Oilers

[midniteowl]

Babcock? Better habit?
