It's sort of unbelievable. He hasn't been awful, but he has been inconsistent.

He's also got no luck whatsoever.
- Jsaquella

Its like Thoreson, he just cant catch a break.

At the end of the day in this salary cap world I look at what he provides for what he is paid, and for the term of his contract.

Inconsistency is a killer.

If you think this coach stinks, wait til you get a load of the next guy.
- PLindbergh31

will he go 5-17-1 against the Rangers and Devils?

Time to move on.

The next guy will be great. Lavi can't make adjustments. Reminds me of Andy Reid.
- stveshdy

Looking forward to the guy they hire who has a Cup on his resume.

If it's Murray certainly not. He won't have the longevity to coach 23 games against those teams.

Couturier was terrific last year. This year not so much. Takes D-man much longer time to develop. Hamilton is struggling mightily for the Bruins.
- PLindbergh31

Cooties was incredible last season defensively. He even showed elements of a good offensive game.

This season is really a step back, in every department, even in terms of effort in the simplest of things.

I think there was a time when he was considered untouchable. He was even to me, to a degree. He is not anymore. Under the right deal, he can be replaced. Its hard because the kid is so young, and I know everything is overanalyzed a bit but he has shown me some things this year that are concerning.

It's about making money, not success on the ice. Rangers were still getting crowds & making money. Always will - their fans are not fair weather.

Yup thanks. Been crying after every playoff ouster since 1980

they're pleased with his progress from what i hear

Happy bday to me Sunday... Took a vacation day. Pretty sure I will be reading about new coach or some trade. Lol.

I'm living in the now don't give a crap about the past. What have you done for me lately. Thats the world we live in. No cup here.

He will probably be traded at some point. He wasn't moved for Weber, instead he will be traded for a guy that isn't half the player Weber is.

So if Murray is named coach, what has he done for you lately? Guy hasn't won a playoff series in 15 years.

If it's Murray certainly not. He won't have the longevity to coach 23 games against those teams.
- PLindbergh31

Really? Hmm...If Laviolette if fired tomorrow, he would have coached 24 fewer games as Flyers head coach than Murray did as LA's coach.

He blows! Playing on the second pairing on the top team in the East. Not to mention he leads the B's defense core in scoring. He's a (frank)ing stiff.

Won't know unless he gets an opportunity. Not asking for Murray to get the job anyways. Just asking for a change at this point. This team is horrendous defensively and part of that goes with the coaching.

He will probably be traded at some point. He wasn't moved for Weber, instead he will be traded for a guy that isn't half the player Weber is.

I'll stop because its getting a little wild but that wouldnt suprise me the least.

Crazy times indeed. Looking forward to what is done in the summer/draft.

That doesn't fly when the owner comes out and publicly orders the GM to "fix" the goaltending.
- Jsaquella

It does to me when the GM hasn't placed a quality goaltender between the pipes since 1987.

Just wondering.

The lockout had me in kind of a "meh" mood before this season began.

Anyone else getting close to it?

So, we should ignore all the other pronouncements of the owner, too? How dare we criticize Mr. Snider and his Good Ol Boy network?

so is this the end?
Hell in a handbasket?

One team came to play hockey today. The Flyers looked like an AHL team out there today.
