Todd Richards death watch

[Bloody Brian Burke]

What a missed opportunity. Richards was losing the room right around the time Lavy was on the market. If we had him last year and this one? Damn.


Oh, and this was picked up on Chicago's feed last night.

That's Boone Jenner saying "Oh Fuck Off" after Johnson misses a puck on the wall and Panarin gets a breakaway.

Considerable speculation that the statement was aimed at Johnson, and not just an exclamation of disgust. Notice at the end of the play, he gives JJ the evil eye.

Todd, how do you get control of the room?

Said the same thing about the Leafs after they kept Carlyle before last season. Missed out on Trotz too.

I wonder what Jacques Martin is up to......

Assistant coaching Crosby to his worst offensive slump ever at the moment.

What about Jacques Demers?

So the majority owner cancelled the team dinner last night? I probably would have canned the coach but this may be the bold move they need.

What about Jacques Lemaire?

From what I hear, there are other issues at work causing that to be cancelled. But the timing has everyone's minds a' racin'.

I would settle for Jacques Villeneuve

Jacques Cartier might be able to find the Jackets a win.

reaction of Bennington when told he could get a 2nd or 3rd round pick as compensation if another team hires Torts

A rebuilding team needs to let go of their best, most productive assets.

We'll take a struggling London Knight along with that 3rd rounder. Bo Horvat only has 1 pt? Bust! We won't even make you carry some of his salary.

The number of people who have latched onto Twatwaffle's "I bet it will be Tortorella" comments and are practically begging for Torts is disgusting.

I saw one person post this as an example of why Torts is the right choice (NSFW Language):

Look around the room when he's suffering diarrhea of the mouth. No one cares. He has lost that team. He was gone not long after that. And right after he left, they go to the finals and win a president's trophy. *THAT* room.

It's amazing how many people do not see that there is a considerable middle ground between that and "uhhh, we're at a a loss". You beat on guys who have done this shit since they were three, and they will tune out.

Assistant coaching Crosby to his worst offensive slump ever at the moment.

Martin's official title is special assistant to the head coach, or senior advisor of hockey operations. I don't believe Martin is doing any coaching for the Pens behind the bench, or at practices, and he hasn't since Bylsma was fired. I believe I read he is watching home games from the media level and giving input to Johnston, and he's scouting upcoming opponents.

It definitely is time for a coaching change, but Torts (like Alex Auld) is not the answer.

Just throwing this out there: Coach Jeremy "JR" Roenick?
