Don't see the upside of continuing on with Collitan.

- Colbyboy


I don't see the upside continuing with Z, Murphy and deHaan

Keith unfortunately age is catching up to him

Stillman, Kalynuk, Mitchell and Boqvist all showing promise but are green

If we couldn't win and we had Carolina top 4 dmen then....

Finished 4th in the Division, and rode some Blackhawk vets and hot goaltending in the playoffs. His 1 good season was his 4th in Mora.

Was a big improvement over the guy he replaced.

This coach is a failure , and could not coach a high school team. 2 -0 ,once again can't keep a lead. Disgraceful, but Theo does not seem to have a very critical opinion of the team just gives a report on them. J.J. IS BETTER !

Tired of the JC bashing he deserves coach of the year votes pal.
- rpeters01

I ain’t your pal, star - and he deserves another season to prove himself - NOT any COY votes.

And I think my post “bashed” everyone, not just Colliton - who does deserve it as much as anyone.

What adjustments did Brind a mour make besides “play better”?
- LAHawk


Yeah if we're being honest I don't think the Canes really changed anything. I think Brind'amour went in the room and told them to pull their collective heads out of their asses because there's still something on the line.

They just woke up and stopped making unforced errors.

JC pulls the goalie with 2:59 left on the Power Play?
No patience - no experience

How did that work out ?
I'll be surprised if Collitan is here come July

- Colbyboy


My guess is that he is gone July '22.

Wow, that’s the definition of damning with faint praise.

So, JC is better than a guy who was terrible. Awesome!

The Hawks gave him a two year extension before this season started. He is currently serving a purpose. That purpose is obviously not primarily winning games.

So do you seriously want to get into the horrible contracts that Bowman has given out ? They couldn't handle his contract demands because of those horrible contracts. That is also on the general manager.

Correct.

With Bowman, a lot of the contracts have been bad, but I think the deals he made trying to salvage the team around them (or to get out of them) have been worse.

I would argue that - you are correct, which I noted in my post.

But I haven’t seen much from Colliton in the way of in-game adjustments that work.

Just my opinion - no stats or facts to back it up.

- StLBravesFan


Not sure I follow. You note that most if not all the goals are due to player error, but that Colliton should have adjusted to something.

I'm not saying that Colliton is a good/great coach. Far from it. All I am asking is how to square individual mistakes being blamed on the coach.

I certainly may be missing your point.

The Hawks paid due to accomplishments, there are teams paying for what they hope to accomplish and never will. I’d rather have the former, which is cups in hand.

Put up a crap ton of points. I'd take him back in a second, if the Hawks could afford it.

What contract besides Seabs was bad? And I don buy the could of gotten 19 and 88 for $2 mil. Less a year, especially with Brisson ( the Scott Boras of hockey) being the agent.

MS, he is supposed to predict that. Besides, he was big in the 2015 cup run.
