this is the way I look at it. I can not pass full judgement based off 12 games. blunders, mistakes, bad judgement comes with the learning process. hell, it started that way from infancy. you had to crawl before you could walk and fell many times picking up a bruise or two, then got back up.
a learning process.
this guys feet are still wet, he's taking his bruises.
you want to chastise him for his failures that's your right to do so and even warranted yet final judgement or any talks of firing is way too premature in my opinion.
this coming draft, the off season and the 2018 season one should be able to gain more leverage in judgement and at this point I can only say I hope he learns and develops in to a fine HC and the team looks to becoming a contender?
I couldn't base it off this season, haven't seen enough yet. that and I realize this is a rebuild with a rookie HC to boot so it would be foolish of me to pass judgement at this juncture.
