Paul MacLean death watch

[Oldtom]

I doubt that he's going anywhere - it's time for the Nat Ho League worms to turn - eh

*standing ovation* Well done, good call Dash.

 

[Cobiemonster]

MWAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA told you so

 

[Cobiemonster]

It's not Bryan's fault that the owner is a cheapskate - he's done the best he can with the hand he's been given

Paul MacLean acted like a complete dickhead last season which didn't help the morale of the team and this season it's been up and down again

Ding ding ding

It's funny that this was announced pretty much as you posted.

pix, I think it was MacLean's comments the other night (and Elliotte Friedman pointed this out on Saturday night) that essentially was placing the blame on Murray for the players that he had been given to coach.

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

Woooowwwwwwwwww

Ding ding ding

This is only ding ding ding if his replacement turns them around. If they get worse, well...

If they get worse, then, well, they could always get Connor McDavid or Jack Eichel

esls thinks it's time Randy Cunneyworth got the Sens job.

Well lets fucking pray they get incrementally better, then.

Shows wot I know -eh. I'm saying that he's the next Coach to be hired somewhere else though. Melnyk has to pay him three years, so he might not be too keen to hurry.

Vince McMahon has a message for Paul MacLean:

 

[jstewismybastardson]

MacLean sending this pic via email to Melnyk probably sealed his fate

 

[Oldtom]

Change in Squat-tawa is not the one that I was looking for. U next 'Little Stevie'.

Yes, hire One Plan Dan. And Torts as assistant.

I want them both off the market when Richards finishes imploding.
