Gravesy Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 Gorton gave AV nothing to work with, by not replacing Derrick Stepan and making questionable trades such as McDonough to Tampa who was our leader on defense, nobody Besides Stall on the defense (Skjei Maybe?)

torontonyr Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 Gorts sacrified the coach's options to better the team in the long run. AV isn't a bad coach, he's just not the type of coach that pivots well. Sometimes you need a guy who knows how to throw fastballs and throw em fast. Sometimes you need more options. AV wasn't good at anything but AV style. It's proven effective before and has taken some teams to places that other teams would have dreamed to get to. But, to blame Gorton for putting the crest about the coach is a bit silly. Returns aside, the concept of evolving into a rebuild was a pill we all needed to swallow, he just did it piecemeal.
