This guy is so arrogant and ego filled, the first negative comment in the post game when it comes to goaltending was today, about Vladar, despite his last 15 games. Every other post game its to cushion his decision to start Markstrom and its more about the team running out of gas.
Forget the on ice results, this guy should be fired just based on his disgraceful ego filled battle with the media, which seems to be affecting his ability to make sane decisions with the line up. I honestly don't give an F what he's done in the past, this might be the worst overall coaching display in the NHL I've ever seen.
Or maybe keep him till the end of the year so we can keep losing and get a better draft pick.

Everyone knew the Sutter schtick when he was hired though, I even said it right after he signed to expect boring, defensive, veteran laden hockey and yet everybody here was still giddy about the news of finally having an elite coach...aaaaand what we're getting right now is exactly what was advertised.
So, now it's fair to turn on him? Honestly, at what point does the GM start to get some blame here? If you need a 6th coach after just 9 years, perhaps it's your vision and methodology that should be questioned, After all, the GM hires the coach as an extension of himself to execute the vision for him and after 9 years, where has Brad's vision taken this franchise? Where's the growth? After almost a decade, is this team not exactly where they were the in Treliving's first season, an inconsistent middling team?
If I was an owner, I would expect more linear type growth upwards instead of an endless roller coaster ride.
