Spoiler alert : Marty is the least of their issues.

My opinion on this, is that it's important to be able to play multiple styles of hockey. Your don’t have to play defense all the time. But in certain situations it's important to do if you wana win games. And it easy to teach players to play fast and shoot alot because it's fun for players. But if the situation needs it, then sometimes players just need to roll up their sleves and play some defense to win a hockey game.

Were there expectations that the team would be good this year?

Depends on who he’d be replaced by . If coach Q would take the job yes. Marty has done a good job considering what he inherited but to win championships ( which Montreal knew a lot about at one time ) you need a balanced system. Quenneville can provide that . In most cases I’ve seen through the years after a few seasons the coaches message become redundant , then they lose the room and it’s over. Perfect example Penguins and Blues . Sully wins a couple cups and is still hanging on but not successfully, Berube wins a cup and 4 1/2 years later he’s gone ! I think timing is everything in these type situations!

The team "style" is rebuilding. If player development is progressing well, Montreal should keep tanking to continue adding high quality prospects.

Maybe they are like the Flyers -- the FO thinks they are onto something when the fans know that they are sooooooooo far away from competing

The Marty experience is over! we need an experienced coach to move forward. 3 years in the rebuild and we have no progress to show. Q will not coach again. The best option is Hardley plus he has coached in the KHL, it will help with Demidov.
