Don Brennan wrote a piece today about how the Sens should go after Stamkos. The same people who have complained about the team not spending now don't want Stamkos because he's expensive. Unbelievable.

has it not been pointed out of late, the team's payroll is only 4 million shy of the cap? The whole notion they are a budget team is kinda BS, no?

 Russell's right, but when isn't he?

They spend money right along with everyone else except a few teams it just that they have to tell everyone everytime they open their mouths that they are a budget team.  Stop it!!!  Just quit talking about it Pierre Dorion.  

Mike Yeo!?!!?!?!?!?!  When I believe most fans said they wanted someone with experience they wanted proven experience not a guy who was just fired because his team quit on him it sure seems this mid season.  The Wild then get an interim coach who pushes them into the playoffs.  Don't go after THAT guy, Please!!!

Luke Richardson, moving along. No head coaching opportunity for him with Sens so he's looking elsewhere.

Whoever they bring in I don't want us to become another NJ Devils snooze fest team. Bab**** showed in Detroit that you can be defensively responsible and still be exciting.

 So like Shredder in year 7 of the podcast

 no, that was more like " i don't give a crap anymore."

 For craps and giggles, listening to last years SU re-union show

Love TVA's intro

Hitch won in Dallas, but he'd be very hard on the players. Crawford might be the best fit - and I don't especially like him either

I wouldn't mind Hitch**** to be honest, but his defensive-shell playing is worrisome. Sure it brings results but it's boring as hell to watch and this is a very offensive-minded team.

...Rumours are out there that Montreal wants to get rid of Subban? Anyone else hearing this? (I got this from my rumour pool in my area)

 hitch would make them nastier/tougher to play against than they are now. i wouldn't mind that.

 

My two concerns with Hitch would be:

1. Would he have the players to follow his philosophy (i.e. play tougher and more responsible)?  Or would he get frustrated with them playing soft and irresponsible.

2. Does he have the cup winning / long playoff coaching experience?  I don't think so but I have not looked up his playoff stats.

Similar concerns here,  does anyone see Hoffman buy into a defensive system that Hitch**** would bring?  How long before he loses the dressing room. 

I really don't know who would be a good fit here.  Would like someone who would figure out how to use Lazar.  He was rushed into the league, but I don' think he is ruined.  Given the right coach, I think he can do well. 

Same goes for Guy Boucher.  Do you want to see this in Ottawa

I'd be fine with Martin coming back as an assistant. he is a great teacher of systems, but not as head coach. Not sure Boucher has the level of respect these guys need. They need someone that no one can question. I like the idea of Hitchjunk.

He does, but he is kind of what we need to whip the defensive game into shape.

Martin would be ok but he's got a hell of a good thing going in Pittsburgh

How would you guys feel about bringing Martin back for a couple of years?
