skunkman Posted February 17, 2018 Author Share Posted February 17, 2018 Why is AV still here? Isn't getting shit canned by our arch enemy enough? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shane Falco Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 My guess is they let him finish the season then let him go. I am hoping they don?t see Ruff as a suitable alternative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giacomin Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 At least the next potential coach will see mgmt gives the coach a long leash and is overly fair about control and evaluating the staff. The only retread I'd be interested in is Quenneville, if he is excited about the youth movement and the young, fast and skilled approach. If so, working with Gorton and staff in NY has to be attractive to him. If not, I'm all for a new sharp progressive up and comer. This mgmt and this city and team should get (and deserve) the pick of the litter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shane Falco Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Shit can him now, let Ruff finish the season, then go from there! I'm with you but I don't think Ruff's any better of an alternative. I think they hire a new coach before the draft. Let this current staff finish the season. It's all evaluation from here on out.

ThirtyONE Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 A couple of the TSN guys speculated that as many as 10 coaches could be fired this offseason. AV being one of them. I think there will be plenty to choose from after the season ends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 I think it's almost a slam dunk he gets let go at the end of the season. I hardly think he's solely at fault here, there's such an overall lack of talent on this roster I actually think he helped them overachieve the last few years. Lots of smoke and mirrors and Hank carrying this team along the way up until this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rangers845 Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 We are completely done now and have a lot of regular season games left here. Fire this guy now and let?s see which young guys are worth keeping going forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaveByRichter35 Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 Anyone in here speak French? After using google to translate this article it says AV will be fired prior to the game in Montreal but every time I translate it its something different. Or it doesn't translate to the same exact thing if its separated. It also mentions according to the NY Post but I see nothing on the Post website about it. https://hockey30.com/nouvelles/alain-vigneault-sera-congedie-avant-le-match-de-jeudi-a-montreal-selon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 This made its rounds on Twitter. It specifically references the NY Post, who have mentioned nothing about this, nor responded for comment. I call bullshit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Future Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 I'm still yet to see a good argument as to what the value in firing AV now is. The team wants to lose, and is losing. Holding onto AV means you have a clean slate in the offseason and you don't put yourself in a whole where an interim does really well. There's just no point to a coaching change.

SaveByRichter35 Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 According to google translate, Alain Vigneault sera CONG?DI? avant le match de jeudi...le 22 f?vrier.. translates to Alain Vigneault will be FREE before Thursday's game on February 22 .. HOWEVER, if you just translate CONG?DI?, you get FIRED. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunny Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 I just can't believe he's trying to play the same style of hockey when his D is essentially 2/3 of an AHL D Corps that struggled mightily at THAT level. I'd be hunkering down Guy Boucher style to get points. This team seemingly has no plan in their own end other than to force a TO and get going the other way as quick as possible.

Sod16 Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 There is no point in firing him now. After the deadline, he will have 16 games or whatever to show that he can develop young players better than the current perception of his abilities in that area. Barring some not particularly likely success in that regard, I think he will be dismissed immediately following the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I pined for him to add some variation to the offensive attack, but defensively he is making no adjustments even though the skill levels, skills and experience has drastically changed. You can see he believes there is only one way to play hockey. I'll give him that, he has conviction. Problem is he is right about playing quickly and as a 5 man team, but he so damn dogmatic he does not seem open to any variation on a theme.
