Around SBN: Nevin Shapiro Vows To Bring Down Miami

I Might Have Been Wrong


When Patrick Roy turned down the Avalanche, I assumed the family card he played was just an excuse and that he'd soon be named coach of the Montreal Canadiens. Instead, it looks like that job is going to Jacques Martin. My bad.

because we didn’t get Jacques Martin as a coach?

and one less coaching slot open for coaches to play play one against the other, yep.

Don’t you have to have a coaching vacancy and a coaching search to have a coaching candidate?

well, true. I was off in bizarro land thinking the Avs had all but fired their coach for a second. Sorry. ;)

They just have to find the paperwork, right

The Savage has spoken. Let it be done

Anybody else feel like chucking it all...

and asking Sakic and/or Lappy to be our Reggie Dunlop this year?

Knowing the disfunctional requirements of PL, they would, at least, qualify as “trusted insiders” and likely could not boner this up any worse than TG has.

They also might have the sense to send Cloutier packing…

Yes, that is desperation you hear in my voice(typing).

I like it when a man can admit he is wrong :-)
