Eklund: Updates on Dineen and Eakins

Foist



Always thought Dineen seemed like a good coach, hopefully he gets another crack at it somewhere.

Eklund: Updates on Dineen and Eakins
- Eklund

he's probably a good coach but seriously a blind goldfish could coach the canadian women's team to a gold medal

News flash... Teams with openings, ALL unemployed coaches are candidates ! No need to say this guy is, or that guy is. Lazy journalism is what it is

Hey EK...

Eakins was a junk player and has failed as a coach...Why the FK would a NHL GM hire that??

Not that year. The USA women were kicking the Canadian womens butts all year leading up to the Olympics. Canada replaced their coach with Dineen late in the year after getting spanked again by the US and all of a sudden the games got tighter and tighter. He got a break when the US coach played politics and cut the leader in +/- and TOI in Vancouver at the last possible minute because she didn't think the team needed her to beat Canada that year. (US coach Katy Stone coaches Harvard and recruited the girl who went elsewhere - seriously). The Canadian women came from behind all year and in the Gold medal game as well. Dineen directly and Stone indirectly brought the gold medal for Canada.

Women play hockey??..

I really hope the Maple Leafs hire Dallas Eakins as their head coach after they lose out on Mike Babcock. Nothing will make me happier than the Leafs having another losing season. I hate the Leafs.

All praise our lord & savior Connor McDavid.

Agreed, it's only fair. Although, it was pretty damn sweet to hear how the Maple Laughs were going to win the Draft Lottery and would get Connor McDavid, and then to have that pulled from under them and handed to us. You con us in to taking Eakins, then we're going to take McDavid.

I would rub it in everyones face. All the time

Agreed. And I will.

Eakins really is a terrible coach. Pathetic practices, players hated him, obscure off season trips to NFL training camps. A complete and utter lack of being able to adjust his failed strategies. Premadona about his appearance. Poor with Ero players.

And he was too revealing in his interviews. Something he had in common with Mac T.

Were you living under a rock prior to the draft lottery? All the talk was how the Maple Laughs were going to win the Draft Lottery and that Connor McDavid would be the savior for Laugh's Nation...........Turns out, he will be a savior, for the Mighty Oilers of Edmonton.

Cache - a hidden storage area of things.

Cachet - renown or reputability.

Thanks.
