Scott Posted June 12, 2023 Share Posted June 12, 2023 Paul Maurice has a system period. It's going on pretty close to a quarter century old now without a cup and overall very little playoff success, but now all the sudden his system is a good/great one and finals worthy. Not the players or the goalie standing on his head (for the most part). The players dragged him this far this time around I don't think he suddenly designed a gem imo. It's way way more about the GM making a trade for a beast like Tkachuk. Regardless we have neither. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All have shown good leadership qualities. Chicago Cubs really tried this in the early 1960s.

Some kinda bullshit story....Q's gotta complete some kind of "therapy" or some shit like that. Fucking Craig MacTavish killed a guy in a drunken car accident, went to jail, and they let him back in. But Quenneville can't coach again? Yeah...ok Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Quenneville can't coach again? Yeah...ok It’s a valid point on a level. Though if Q really did play the role in sweeping all of what happened under the rug, then he likely shouldn’t coach again. If something is discovered or comes out that maybe the circumstances weren’t that, then he should get another look. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he was accused of "not saying anything". All I'm saying is there have been some pretty extreme cases of players doing some pretty stupid shit over the years, and the NHL won't allow this guy to coach unless he eats six apples and shits a fruit salad for Bettman? I think it's a bunch of bullshit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's a bunch of bullshit. I don’t disagree with your last point. And I think people have kind of viewed him as the actual perpetrator of the crime. But…. It’s a different era. And if he actually did what he’s accused of, it’s hard to let him coach again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he actually got caught smuggling it over the Canadian border. Probert got nabbed in the Detroit-Windsor tunnel with more than a few bumps on him! Q didn't even get charged for anything, did he? I'm not positive if he did or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
