Tons of good coaches available.........Randy Carlye, Boucher, Tippett (probably), Torts, Babcock, Bylsma and even a guy like John Stevens who IMO is going to be very successful after being groomed under Sutter in LA.



I've brought up that last name to a few friends and gotten laughed at. I would be more than thrilled to see Stevens back here.

By the way, Carchidi reports that Hextall is having a press conference on Wednesday at 2 PM to announce Berube's status.

Baicker's saying that the presser's at the Skate Zone and the last two times they fired a coach, they announced it at Wells Fargo. Could just be because the last two times it happened in-season, but hopefully it ultimately means nothing because Berube really, really has to go.

Holding onto Berube until Vinny quits.

Berube fired yet?

They would have to know something first.

Timmy P says it's the annual end-of-season GM press conference and there probably won't be a decision on Berube today

Berube is still head coach but Hextall hardly gave him a ringing endorsement. I feel like if you read between the lines, Berube is done.

Certainly doesn't sound like any kind of ringing endorsement for Berube by Hextall. Probably still just a matter of time until he's gone.

shouldn't have held a press conference if a decision hasn't been made.

The fact that Hextall seems fine with the fact that Couturier put up 37 points after having 39 last year is concerning to me.

Hextall expects Umberger to be in the best shape of his life next year. At age 33. Great.

just judging by your comments, it sounds like he's just saying the right and safe things. don't read too much into it. none of this shit is acceptable and he knows it
