Coles notes, the team may suck, but their smoke and mirror numbers are great.

Easy Big Fella, this post might put you in Troll category.Tiger wrote:hmm so we blame the coach for the lousy production of the PP?? ( thought that was Newell Browns job? ) .. or
maybe we blame him for the lousy production of the #1 line?? ( Sedin's production is declining maybe because of aging and maybe because they are "One Trick Ponies" and unable to change the way they play? )
So lets examine with something other than rose collored glasses exactly what AV has to work with ( Yeah the Dude has a point )..
a #1 line that is producing at about 1/2 what it used to...
No #2 line.. Booth, Kesler both out..
So our goal production is coming from what are basically 2 #3 lines..
Our wins are dependent on winning low scoring games by playing great defensively and excellent goaltending..
AV has been coaching very well considering the talent on his team
Isn't Newell Brown part of the coaching team? AV is in charge of the overall coaching. He could force Brown to change the PP units if things don't work out. With Edler out, Garrison has performed well in the first power play unit. With Edler back on Tuesday, I am almost 100% sure that Edler will be back on the first unit even though he is not performing.Tiger wrote:hmm so we blame the coach for the lousy production of the PP??

Last time I looked Newell Brown was a Gillis hiring...You think AV can bypass his boss Gillis ? .. Garrison has done great but the Sedin's still suck on the PP.. Neither using Edler or Garrison will change that.. Maybe Med's suggestion of benching Daniel? But as we have no replacement forwards that seems impossible. Again , Av has done wonders the last 4 games ... Yeah if gillis wasn't a stubborn irishman Newell Brown would be gone..Jovocop wrote:Isn't Newell Brown part of the coaching team?
