he sounds like he is pretty aggressive minded, that is good. i think it was time for change because the sit back and hope you get a lucky goal philosiphy just wasn't working.

it's cool he's from mn too.

will take some getting used to for the players but it will be the right step towards the cup!!!

[CleanLX]

Sounds like a good choice.

Can't compare the guy to Lemaire as far as history, but should be a nice change.

[Southern]

Im pretty excited about this choice.

[black01stang]

It'll be nice to get a new style in and see what it does for the team! Hopefully there will be some more goals scored and games won. Maybe not the 1st year, but after that. Lemaire wasn't a bad coach, but definatly time for change.

[Ruiner]

Hell yeah!!

now we need to make some good draft choices, get rid of zidlicky & bergeron, sign gabby to a deal and make a few more trades....need another center asap.

Zidlicky will do wonders in this system...

Now we'll get to see if Backstrom is worth his salary in a pressing system. Boogy is done, Sheppard should flourish and Pouliot will hopefully be traded!

[Outrun]

Lol, Sheppard. He needs to go. I don’t know why there is hate against Bergeron and Zidlicky. I think they both have cannon’s of a shot and although Zidlicky did make some bonehead turnovers, he’s not as bad as say…Numelin. I like their D, it’s their lack of goals that killed them.

Isn’t Pouliot down in the minors? Bring up Kolanos and let him flourish instead of Sheppard.

This is gonna be a completely different team next year.

Ya Pouliot was sent down. Kolanos isn't that great either, The only thing going for Shepperd is that he is 20. Not great but he has some years to progress and he'd be good trade bait.

herro, dingleberry, Sheppard sucks balls. How many goals has he scored in the past 2 years? Under 10?

Although Kolanos is not that great as you say, the few games he was here he played with intensity, scored a goal or two and played his ass off unlike Sheppard or Pouliot.

Gaborik. I say keep him, but I think he'll get Zetterberg type money from one of the original 6 teams....Toronto? I doubt he'll get 10 mil, but who knows.
