For what it's worth, I thought he was an exceptional coach. Loved going to the arena every day under him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JM57 Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 I think Bylsma would be a very solid option. He did have his weaknesses in his tenure in Pittsburgh, but he did the best thing possible a first time coach could do after being fired--watched as much as he could of all the teams in the league and delved further into analytics to try and shore up his weaknesses for the next job.

Rubes Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 (edited) I think they'll end up with a good coach one way or another, but I'm still wondering what the heck they're going to do at goalie. Edited May 26, 2015 by Rubes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lurker Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 I think they'll end up with a good coach one way or another, but I'm still wondering what the heck they're going to do at goalie. Trade for one, I suspect... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would surprise me if they didn't bring back Neuvirth. He played pretty well here. I could also see them making a trade for Anderson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't matter - as long as Irbe is the goaltender coach, whoever it is will be a Vezina winner! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
